Unfair Dismissal

In order to claim unfair dismissal, a claimant has to meet the following criteria:

1. Be an employee.

2. Have one year’s service. There are some exceptions to this.

3. Have been dismissed.

A dismissal will be fair provided the employer has a potentially fair reason for dismissal and has followed the statutory dismissal procedure and has acted reasonably in treating the reason for dismissal as sufficient reason.

Unless Order

An order which if it not complied with by the Claimant or the Respondent will lead to the Claim or Response being struck out on the date of non-compliance without further consideration by the tribunal
