Workplace Discrimination
Are you facing unfair treatment at work? We can assist. The Equality Act 2010 sets out nine protected characteristics, making it illegal for employees to be discriminated against based on:
- Age
- Disability
- Gender Reassignment
- Marriage or Civil Partnership (in relation to employment)
- Pregnancy and Maternity
- Race
- Religion or Belief
- Sex
- Sexual Orientation
If you have experienced unfair or differential treatment at work due to any of these protected characteristics, you may have grounds for a discrimination claim against your employer. Contact us for more information or to book a consultation.
Unfair Dismissal
If you have been unfairly dismissed without your employer following the proper procedures, we can assess your case and determine whether your claim is viable. If you have worked for your employer continuously for at least two years, you are entitled to a number of legal protections, including the right not to be dismissed without a fair reason.
Where necessary, we can help you bring your claim before an employment tribunal to seek compensation for unfair or wrongful dismissal.
Workplace Harassment
If you or your colleagues have experienced mistreatment or harassment at work, you may have grounds for a legal claim. Employees have the right to a fair and respectful workplace, free from harassment that creates an intimidating or offensive environment.
We will assess your case and, where appropriate, assist you in bringing your claim before a tribunal to seek compensation.
Redundancy
If you are facing redundancy, you have legal rights to ensure you are treated fairly. Redundancy differs from dismissal, as it is not a reflection of employee performance but rather a result of the role ceasing to exist.
The law outlines specific protections for employees in redundancy situations, and it is the employer’s legal responsibility to handle the process fairly. We can assess your case to determine whether your role can be saved or, if redundancy is unavoidable, ensure you receive the correct redundancy payment.
