Key Takeaways
- Unfair dismissal occurs when an employer terminates your employment without a fair reason or fails to follow proper procedures.
- The UK Equality Act 2010 lists certain ‘protected characteristics’ (gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, disability, and age). Discrimination on any of the above grounds can take place either directly or indirectly.
- Consulting an employment solicitor helps employers ensure legal compliance in recruitment, contracts, and policies. They also assess claims and provide representation in the Employment Tribunal if needed.
