Employment Law

What is employment law?

The employer/employee relationship, is governed by Employment Law.  The law sets down what employers can expect from their employees, what employers can ask of their employees and also what the employee’s rights at work are.

From recruitment and selection to exit management, employers must ensure that they comply with their legal obligations throughout.

Employment Tribunals

Employees have rights which are protected, pursuant to employment law/regulations. As an employer if you breach these rights your employee could take you to an employment tribunal.

An employment tribunal can cause a lot of stress on an employer. Since the abolishment of employment tribunal fee’s in July 2017, the number of employment tribunals have increased, so avoiding one is important at all costs.

If you are dealing with a dispute and need more information, please visit our employment tribunal page or alternatively contact one of our experts today.
