Always a risk I would say, no matter how small it may be.

So all this " the poor are excluded from justice " cobblers ,is in fact, cobblers.

Always gets a certain audiences going doesn't it

it is so clear that to me it quite remarkable that people don't seem to pick up on it. Who wins when there are many more cases that reach the Tribunal? Its lawyers isn't it...I've had to experience it once before the charges came in, it quickly became apparent that although we acted in good faith she actually was a serial complainer (well its free init so why not give it a shot). Ahem it isn't free to those who you drag through this, it isn't free for those who had the best intention and now have to spend many a day preparing a case and not focussed on their own job. It isn't free to their reputation. The travel isn't free, the time isn't free, the worries and the self reflection aren't free either.

I've only had a peripheral personal involvement in a tribunal claim, but have seen close colleagues being directly involved and having to prepare and give evidence; the sheer amount of time they have had to waste, and the amount of work and stress involved is ridiculous.

All because some scumbag waste of oxygen got fired for being a waste of oxygen, and decides they've got nothing to lose by making false and malicious accusations against good people.

So it's only free to people with less than £3,000 in savings and earns less than £13,020 a year gross.
£13,020 is LESS than minimum wage for a a  25yr old.
£3,000 or less is not exactly a lot of savings, especially considering the costs of a deposit for a house that many people may have been trying to save for long term.

.... but they are all probably all lazy, dodgy money scammers and it's not fair on businesses and employers who are all incredibly fair and honest.

Sod all the innocent and unfairly treated employees because there are some scammers and therefore it's justified to sacrifice them for the sake of not letting the dishonest get a chance.
Ignore the unscrupulous and unethical businesses and employers because it's totally unjust to risk the chance that an innocent and unfairly treated business might be taken advantage of.

Toko Black

Yep, because it's never the case that someone is actually unfairly dismissed and has their life turned upside down by an unscrupulous employer is it.

Have you any idea how difficult it is to terminate someone nowadays? How many hoops you have to jump through?

Bl4ckGryph0n

Ahem, context is everything. It was suggested earlier that the people don't have £1,000. Sure fine, so if they don't then that is ok isn't it?

Werewolfs

They are not really hoops though if its a valid reason.

Bl4ckGryph0n

So if the reason is valid then they are not hoops, but if the reason is invalid then they are? Yet they are the same activities? Best to just get rid before the rights kick in
