Disciplinary (Employment Law)

The Statutory Dispute Resolution Procedure contains a 3-step process for handling disciplinary meetings and dismissals and is recognised by ACAS and the Employment Tribunals as the fair and consistent means of dealing with disciplinary and dismissals.

A failure to comply with the procedure by an employer particularly in respect of a dismissal may render them liable for a claim for automatically unfair dismissal. In effect this means that whatever the merits of the case that an employer has the mere fact that the procedure has not been correctly followed could mean an employer would automatically lose if the case goes to tribunal.

At Employment Relations Services we have extensive experience in handling all sorts of queries in relation to disciplinary meetings and dismissals, we draft letters and advise our clients throughout the process to make sure they fully understand the process and how to comply with it.
