Unfair Dismissal Laws Archives

Could this be unfair dismissal?

Can someone legally be fired for having a relationship with a co-worker’s young daughter? With a large age gap, (22 years) but I should state that the girl is not under-age, (16).

can i claim for unfair dismissal?

I started work on a 3 month probationary period. Towards the end of this period i was signed off sick by my doctor (which took me over the probationary period) I was asked to have a meeting to review my probationary period. At this meeting i was told they werent happy with my absences (no complaints about my quality of work) and was offered a new probationary period which i agreed to, however when receiving confirmation of this and giving me 1 weeks notice for previous probationary period, they informed me they could not guarantee me 16 hours a week(previous contract hours were 25 hours)or offered me a reserve shift at another store and asked me to let them know of my choice by contacting them. And wished me success for the future should they not hear from me. On the letter there was no contact address or telephone number, so i have been unable to contact them to discuss this

I was unfairly dismissed from my previous job. Turns out my boss did not go through any of the correct procedures, and he also did not give me any written warnings or training in health and safety law, he also failed to correct me on my mistakes, and i was never told about my mistakes, if so not every clearly at all.

Anyway he has invited me to his office tomorrow to have a word with him and act against this dismissal, what should i say to win the case and get my name cleard? Any effective argument tactics which i could use.

I am 17 by the way and i am new to all of this.

Advice on a potential unfair dismissal?

Please could any one provide advice on whether this appears legal. Someone in my daughters workplace was apparently asked to leave, ie sacked and, if that person went, they were promiced a good reference from the company (Q1, is this legal?). The company claim that they communicated this – only by email – to relevant staff, including my daughter as she had managed this person in the past (while ‘acting up’ as a manager). My daughter does not ever remember seeing this email. She recieved a request for a reference for this person a few months later and completed it honestly. it was positive apart from one part – but it was honest. The person didn’t get the job and, and is now sueing the organisation for apparently thousands of pounds. My daugher was asked, before she knew there were any issues if she had writen this reference by her boss and, at the time – without knowing the seriousness of the situation had said no. But later, remembering she had. (they say she was withholding information on purpose). She is now having to face a 50:50 chance of dissmissal or demotion based on the fact that she should have sent the reference to HR before sending back to the client. Regardless of what ever is happening in the background, is this really potentially a sackable offence. One small mistake of not sending a reference to HR. Her first mistake in 5 years or working there as a very good worker? any advice or experience would be much appreciated. It seems very unfair that she is getting so much blame for 1 small error.

If there is any upcoming or lawyers out there that would love a challenge with a case that you would win using your expertise and advice please contact me… We have so much against the company but dont have much money to pay, but it is against a contractor that is working for the Defence Department. If you want your name known please contact me….

Unfair Dismissal? Should it be Redundancy?

I’ve been employed with a Security Company for over 5 years. This company has contracts with two companies and they send security officers to their sites. I was employed to work on one of the company’s sites. The company (who contracted my Employer, the Security Company) had false rumours and allegations about me which are untrue and weren’t proven, so they decided that they don’t want me on their sites. The Security Company, who I was employed with offered me a job at the other company but I didn’t have the necessary qualifications. Then they gave me 5 weeks notice pay in lieu and they dismissed me – as a result of this dismissal I cannot work as a Security Officer any more. Shouldn’t this be Redundancy, not dismissal? Isn’t that common sense as they tried to offer me another job on another site and didn’t have any other jobs for me?
