    Employment Contract Issues

    I know you said at the start that your post was long to avoid the need for lots of questions but - guess what - there are loads of questions! I am not going to ask them all but I am going to point a few things out. 1. You do have a contract - a contract is not a pice of paper it is the deal...

    Retraction of redundancy notice.

    To tell the truth it is very difficult to go further on a forum such as this, That is mostly because the information should be volunteered rather than lead. You can PM me if you want. Francis

    Retraction of redundancy notice.

    On balance, pending more detail, I would say that he would be likely to be successful at Tribunal but it is always a gamble to rely on it. Francis

    Constructive Dismissal / Unfair Dismissal..

    If she is "not one to fight" it is all a bit irrelevant. If she wants to do something about it then it is worth discussing but if she dosn't then why even ask? Francis

    Retraction of redundancy notice.

    s.141 says "the employee is not entitled to a redundancy payment if he unreasonably refuses the offer" So the refusal would need to be unreasonable, and, s.142 says; "(3) An [employment tribunal] may determine that the employer is liable to make an appropriate payment to the...

    Retraction of redundancy notice.

    The basic position is that if notice has been given by one party to the contract, it can not be withdrawn except by mutual consent. Having said that every case is different so it will depend on the facts. Francis

    Constructive Dismissal / Unfair Dismissal..

    A significant question is, were the previous warnings were appealed? If not was she told that she could appeal and/or is there a disciplinary procedure that she has a copy of or access to? These questions are all relevant because not appealing previous findings are likely to be seen by a...

    UKBF Member require legal help to kill PPL/PRS!

    I must confess I have not read my way through this whole thread or the other thread that is linked to at the start. I have never looked at the relevant law and I don't have much idea what the legal basis is for PRS and/or PPL demanding money for having a radio on in a place of work or where...

    Left employment of own accord where do I stand

    Yes it is always true to say that it is difficult to prove a verbal agreement but it is not very often the case that if the OP is telling the truth that his brother will not tell the truth. Having said that it may be that a Tribunal and/or a bench of magistrates may have to decide who is...

    Left employment of own accord where do I stand

    Hi Maho There are a great deal of questions that I would need to be answered to be able to be clear about your position. You should probably think carefully before trying to use the law against your brother but judging by your post it appears that you have already made that decision...

    Advice needed on warning to employee

    I don't see from the OP that any kind of procedure was followed to arrive at a verbal warning. I assume that someone reported to you that this driver was driving in the way that you describe but did you give the driver the chance to offer his side of the story, or did you just give him the...

    Help with filling out contract

    The issue that you are asking about is a good illustration of why 'standard' contracts and other legal documents are usually a waste of time. I very much agree with Karl, it is impractical to give any advice on snipits of a contract. Any contract would, if the need arrises, be construed as a...

    Help with filling out contract

    I haven't been here for a while. Good to see that people still don't listen to what the law is!!! I could do with some work if anyone has any ET advocacy that needs doing! Francis

    Penalised in pay for sickness, advice please.

    Hi Guys It could be that I am going to upset you all again! I do agree that if it says in his contract that he should get double time for a bank-holiday then he should get it. But I don't necessarily agree that if the contract says that he should not get the double time or if it says...
