    Consumer Rights Act 2015 - Section 10

    I would send a final letter confirming your stance on the matter. You then need to wait to see if you receive court papers to which you then need to respond. It sounds like you have been quite fair. You should ensure your paperwork includes all the texts and emails between you as they will show...

    Timescale for capability

    I would say three months is a fair timescale for monitoring capability. I always recommend weekly meetings to document progress and to ensure there is support and training regularly discussed. At the end of three months if there has been no improvement in performance you could instigate the...

    Employment tribunal and information request from employer

    As you state the case management discussion orders have been revoked it seems the preliminary hearing will state what happens and when. The letter for the PHR should give some basic guidance on what is going to be considered. For example if it is discrimination you may need to identify whether...

    Help, disability, off sick - what next?

    Ex employer has ignored my subject access request

    If the paperwork is needed for your claim the employment tribunal will take a dim view of the respondent failing to disclose it. I would write to the employment tribunal about their failure to disclose. You could ask for a strike out. Hopefully you will be offered a preliminary hearing to...

    Is it typical for an employer to not settle through ACAS conciliation?

    There is no normal behaviour when it comes to employment tribunals. So you must continue on with your case and work with your solicitor to get your paperwork prepared and follow due procedure. You may be offered a pre hearing review as its an alleged case of sex discrimination to set the...

    Hypothetical situation: "Inaccurate" Minutes of Disciplinary...

    I have minuted many meetings over the years including disciplinary hearings. Very often after I have typed the minutes up the employee that has been subject of the hearing wants to make changes before agreeing to sign and date them. I allow them to change the typed document in pen/paper so...
