Unfair dismissal is when an employee is let go without a fair reason or without a fair process being followed. Under section 94 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, employees have a statutory right not to be unfairly dismissed.
To be considered 'fair', the reason for an employee's dismissal must usually fall into one of a few categories – such as capability, conduct, redundancy, or what’s known as ‘some other substantial reason’. But even if the reason is valid, the employer still needs to follow a reasonable and fair process. Some dismissals are automatically unfair, like if someone is dismissed because of becoming pregnant, whistleblowing, or joining a union.
Most employees need to have worked for their employer for at least two years to bring a claim, though that time limit doesn’t apply to automatically unfair cases.
If you have been unfairly dismissed from your job, our team of expert solicitors may be able to help you claim compensation from your former employer. _________________________________________________________________________
