Workshop: How to Avoid an Unfair Dismissal

7 Feb

Our employment law and HR workshop held near Cardiff is designed to raise awareness and potential pitfalls of an unfair dismissal in the workplace.

The words Unfair Dismissal are enough to raise fear in any employer. This is often a difficult area for many organisations to manage. The consequences of getting a dismissal wrong can be disruptive and costly for a business.  The maximum award for an unfair dismissal claim has now reached £95,211.
