HR Readers - this may be of interest! The Government are consulting about whether to include CIPD professionals within the definition of “relevant advisor.” If this gets the go ahead, CIPD members could advise on compromise agreements, thereby earning some extra pocket money!
The one down side of the proposal is that about 5% of proposed compromise agreements do not get signed and end up at ET. If a CIPD member is advising then unless they were authorised claims practitioners they could not act in the claim, meaning a dis-continuity of service to the client.
Anyway I can’t see Solicitors wanting CIPD members parking their tanks on their lawn, can you? And can you imagine someone just handed a compromise agreement by HR, thinking I know I must go and see a CIPD member to negotiate this, as they will be able to see my side rather than HRs. Mmmmm. Don’t think so.
Consultation here

The Court of Appeal, on a permission application, has upheld an EAT decision that a complaint of unfair dismissal presented 88 seconds late was out of time and so there was no jurisdiction to hear the claim.
See here for the judgment which recognises that the legislation imposes a harsh regime but states that “so do most time bars, which exist for the very good policy reason, that parties should know where they stand within a limited time of any dispute arising”.
So the lesson is, don’t leave it ’til the last minute!
