Send us a textHi thereWe hope your employment rights are getting you enthused to challenge unfair treatment at work. Don’t be put off!Last week we looked at how a tribunal will test whether your employer had enough information to reasonably believe you are guilty of misconduct for which your employer is seeking to dismiss you.In this week’s podcast episode, we look at how an employment tribunal will challenge your employer to show how dismissing you from your job, was the only reasonable action the employer could take, for dealing with your alleged misconduct.  So, in other words, was dismissal the only sanction available or could your employer have chosen a lesser sanction that would have allowed you to remain in your job.    As always, you can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode - and remember you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues.Bye for now.Employment Rights Online PODCAST LINKSSUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINTHere’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaintGrievance template letters Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here:https://www.acas.org.uk/ https://www.acas.org.uk/dismissals/dismissing-someone-fairly Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/  IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCASTYou Can Listen to back editions of the podcast hereITUNEShttps://apple.co/3yBkcgy BUZZSPROUThttps://bit.ly/2SAxYkb SPOTIFYhttps://spoti.fi/2TLKwWm Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

Send us a textHi thereWe hope your employment rights are doing the job of keeping you informed about your rights at work.  In last week’s podcast episode, we looked specifically at what happens if you’re unfairly dismissed, but you have also done something to contribute to your own dismissal.  This week’s podcast looks at what happens if you are dismissed from your job for misconduct or gross misconduct, but you believe your employer may have over-egged the issue and made an incident much bigger than it actually is, just to sack you from your job.  In the podcast, we look at the role of employment tribunals, in putting employers to the test regarding the reasonableness of employer’s belief, about the guilt of employees who are facing allegations of misconduct that could lead to the employee’s dismissal. As always, you can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode… and remember you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues.Bye for now.Employment Rights Online PODCAST LINKSSUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINTHere’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaintGrievance template letters Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here:https://www.acas.org.uk/ https://www.acas.org.uk/dismissals/dismissing-someone-fairly Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/  IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCASTYou Can Listen to back editions of the podcast hereITUNEShttps://apple.co/3yBkcgy BUZZSPROUThttps://bit.ly/2SAxYkb SPOTIFYhttps://spoti.fi/2TLKwWm Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

When You Get Sacked But Your Dismissal is Still Unfair – Here’s What An Employment Tribunal Will Do!

Send us a textHi thereThis week, we are completing our look at procedurally unfair dismissals, to look at the other side of the dismissal, where the conduct of your employer might have been procedurally wrong, making your dismissal unfair. But, where the tribunal still thinks you have some responsibility for your own dismissal, and you should be held accountable for that responsibility.This is called contributory fault and the tribunal will be looking at whether you contributed to your own dismissal, which led to your unfair dismissal. In this episode, we go through the definition of ‘contributory fault’ and we look at the original legal precedent case, that put ‘contributory fault’ onto the statute books. You can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode… and remember you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues.Bye for now.Employment Rights Online PODCAST LINKSSUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINTHere’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaintGrievance template letters Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here:https://www.acas.org.uk/ https://www.acas.org.uk/dismissals/dismissing-someone-fairly Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/  IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCASTYou Can Listen to back editions of the podcast hereITUNEShttps://apple.co/3yBkcgy BUZZSPROUThttps://bit.ly/2SAxYkb SPOTIFYhttps://spoti.fi/2TLKwWm Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

Send us a textHi EveryoneWe hope you are continuing to use your employment rights to challenge unfair treatment at work. So, this week’s episode is a bit of a continuation from last week’s episode, where we looked at dismissals for reasons of capability.  Last week we looked at complaints about your performance at work and how competency is used to dismiss for performance reasons.  This week, we look at the other side of capability reasons for dismissals, where the focus is on short term sickness and absences from work and long term ill health – both of which can be used by employers, to dismiss you from your job for a potentially fair reason.Remember, that if you like what we are doing, please like, share and subscribe to our podcast and our content; and we would also like to ask you to take a couple of minutes out of your busy schedule to leave us a review on iTunes, so others can get to know about our podcast.

Remember, we are here to support you if you have any questions that relate to your employment rights and any questions about your working life or career. This week, we’re looking at a question that has come up for several people in our community who asked questions about what they need to do if they have left a job on bad terms with the employer and the employer is delaying or refusing to give them their P45 to smooth out the start of their new job.     The question was whether there was a work around for this problem. So… in this week’s episode, we give you three workarounds you can use to fix the situation of not having a P45. There are two links below, to the forms mentioned in the podcast. Click the links to take you to the relevant internet sites.

Is the ‘Bradford Factor’ for Managing Sick Leave Coming to a Workplace Near You!

Is the ‘Bradford Factor’ for Managing Sick Leave Coming to a Workplace Near You!

Send us a textHi Everyone We hope you’re having a positive employment rights week. This week, we’re looking at a sickness monitoring system called the Bradford Factor or the Bradford Formula, which is a system used by some companies to monitor levels of sick leave, but also to monitor the impact or disruption of short, frequent and unplanned sick leave  on a company’s business. The aim is to show that shorter bouts of sick leave by employees, has much higher disruption levels than people taking longer periods of sick leave away from work. The formula for working out your attendance score is: Number of sickness spells away from work x the same number (e.g. 2 separate spells of sickness from work would be written as 2x2) The total number of days of sick is then multiplied by the sickness spell number (e.g. 7 days of sick leave across the 2 spells, would be written as 2 x 2 x 7) We hope you find the formula helpful. At the end of these notes, you will find usual links to our grievance help documents. Finally, if you like what we are doing, you can like, share and subscribe to our podcast and our content and you can also leave us a review on iTunes so others can see what we are doing.

Now, here at ERO, we appreciate that businesses have to make tough decisions at this time, and this will inevitably include people being made redundant.  Were we have concerns however, is not with the decisions businesses need to take… but how those decisions are executed. This week we bring you a case of a worker who was never told she was going to be made redundant and instead, thought she had a job and was merely furloughed because of covid. The worker was pregnant and believed the employer chose her for redundancy because of her pregnancy, which if true, would be illegal under the Equality Act 2010. You can refer to the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast, for any additional help you may need with raising a complaint about unfair treatment at work.  There’s a really good download that can help you to raise a grievance at work, so you can ask your employer to investigate your concerns. Just head to the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast and you’ll find the links there.  On a final note, please spare a moment to like and share the podcast with others and to leave us a review on ITunes or anywhere else where you’re listening to the podcast. Thanks for listening and have a great week. Bye for now.   PODCAST LINKS SUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINT Here’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaint Grievance template letters   Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work 15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here: https://www.acas.org.uk/   Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/   IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCAST You Can Listen to back editions of the podcast here ITUNES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/employment-rights-online-the-podcast/id1498158538 LIBSYN http://employmentrightsonline.libsyn.com/ SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5GZzg2aVogFC3bA9GQkHrc?si=PURhxhMlQeOXrzMvWK5ByA  Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

What Do You Do If Your Employer Forces Your Redundancy Without Consultation!

What Do You Do If Your Employer Forces Your Redundancy Without Consultation!

Send us a textHi Everyone We hope you are continuing to keep safe, as we edge closer to resuming our post covid lives. This week we take a brief look at redundancy rights, against the backdrop of the collapse of the Arcadia Group, which was owned by Sir Phillip Green – and which now places the redundancy rights of 12,000 workers, in a precarious position. That position focuses on whether those redundancy rights have been breached and what the likely outcome will be for the taxpayer, if the government ends up footing the bill on this matter. You can refer to the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast, for any additional help you may need with raising a complaint about unfair treatment at work.             There’s a really good download that can help you to raise a grievance at work, so you can ask your employer to investigate your concerns.

Yes! Your Employer May Try to Sack You For Not Having A Covid Vaccine. But No! Your Sacking May Not Be Legal. Here's Why!

Yes! Your Employer May Try to Sack You For Not Having A Covid Vaccine. But No! Your Sacking May Not Be Legal. Here's Why!

Send us a textHi Everyone We hope you are doing okay as conversations take place about whether the government is intending to scale back your employment rights, now that the UK has left the EU. We’ll bring you updates about this as things develop. In this week’s episode, we look at one of the discussions already taking place about covid, which surrounds announcements by some employers, that they will either sack or refuse to hire people who refuse to take the covid vaccine. In the episode we explore the thinking of employers around this issue and what employment rights you have, if you find yourself sidelined or dismissed from your job, for refusing to have a covid vaccine. We hope you find something useful that you can work with in this week’s episode.  Remember to let others know we are here, by sharing our content and leaving us a review about the podcast on iTunes …or anywhere else where you’re listening and where you can leave a review.   We’d love to hear from you. Until next week Thanks for listening Bye for now.   PODCAST LINKS SUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINT Here’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaint Grievance template letters   Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work 15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here: https://www.acas.org.uk/   Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/   IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCAST You Can Listen to back editions of the podcast here ITUNES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/employment-rights-online-the-podcast/id1498158538 LIBSYN http://employmentrightsonline.libsyn.com/ SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5GZzg2aVogFC3bA9GQkHrc?si=PURhxhMlQeOXrzMvWK5ByAFind us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

No! Your Religious Social Media Posts May Not Be Fully Protected Under Discrimination Law!

Send us a textHi everyoneWe hope you are continuing to keep your spirits as high as you can, during the lockdown. Like you, we hope it’s over soon.We’ve reached a milestone this week, in that our podcast is a year old today and we’re super pleased about that.  We started the podcast just before the lockdown, not quite knowing how it would be received after lockdown started.  But looking at how much you engage with the podcast, it’s clear we had nothing to worry about.  So, on our first anniversary, we want to take this opportunity to thank you all for the support you have shown our small but mighty project.In this week’s episode, we take a look at what can happen if you post religious comments in social media groups, which criticise your employer’s business.  The focus in the episode, is on the wrongly held belief that because your religion and belief is a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010 – that you are able to make religious-based comments freely, wherever you want, without any disciplinary measures being taken against you.We hope you find something useful that you can work with in this week’s episode.  Remember to let others know we are here, by sharing our content and leaving us a review about the podcast on iTunes or anywhere else where you’re listening and where you can leave a review.  This would be a real gift to receive after reaching our one year milestone.Have a great week.Thanks for listeningBye for now PODCAST LINKSSUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINTHere’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaintGrievance template letters Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work15 Smart Grievance Actions Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights:https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/ IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCASTYou Can Listen to back editions of the podcast hereITUNES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/employment-rights-online-the-podcast/id1498158538LIBSYNhttp://employmentrightsonline.libsyn.com/SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5GZzg2aVogFC3bA9GQkHrc?si=PURhxhMlQeOXrzMvWK5ByA Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

Stop! Employers Cannot Discriminate During Their Interview Processes!

Stop! Employers Cannot Discriminate During Their Interview Processes!

Send us a textHi Everyone We hope you are keeping well as we try and focus our way out of this worrying pandemic. This week we’re still looking at age discrimination, but this time we look at age discrimination in recruitment and selection processes, because it is still against the law - or the Equality Act (2010) in particular, to fail to recruit someone to a job because of anything to do with their age, or because of a belief or bias of  the recruiter, that person is too old or too young for the job.  We look at this principle using a recent case that was successful at an Employment Tribunal. If something like this has happened to you… you should consider seeking legal advice from ACAS, a Citizens Advice bureaus or a law centre, if you decide to bring your case to an Employment Tribunal.        We hope you enjoy the episode and find something useful that you can work with in this week’s episode.  Remember to let others know we are here, by sharing our content and leaving us a review about the podcast on iTunes or anywhere else where you’re listening and where you can leave a review.   We’d love you to share your views with us and tell us what you think about the podcast.  Until next week Thanks for listening Bye for now.     PODCAST LINKS SUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINT Here’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaint Grievance template letters   Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work 15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here: https://www.acas.org.uk/   Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/   IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCAST You Can Listen to back editions of the podcast here ITUNES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/employment-rights-online-the-podcast/id1498158538 LIBSYN http://employmentrightsonline.libsyn.com/ SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5GZzg2aVogFC3bA9GQkHrc?si=PURhxhMlQeOXrzMvWK5ByAFind us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK

The One About Discrimination Not Being Permissible in Your Workplace Social Media Group

The One About Discrimination Not Being Permissible in Your Workplace Social Media Group

Send us a textHi Everyone We hope you are having a productive employment rights week. This week, whilst we are still in our discrimination mode, we just want to touch on something that came up in one of our discussions, which involved someone looking for advice after being dismissed for making inappropriate comments in a social media group. If you thought that your comments in your group were private, especially when you make those comments outside of working hours, then you may need to review your understanding.  We hope this episode helps with that. If you have been on the receiving end of this kind of treatment, you should consider submitting a grievance asking your employer to investigate your complaint. You can refer to the show notes where you’re listening to this podcast, for help with making your complaint.  We have included some handy grievance help documents with this episode, which you can access using the download links in the show notes.  And that’s it for this week.  We hope you find something useful that you can work with in this week’s episode.  Remember to let others know we are here, by sharing our content and leaving us a review about the podcast on iTunes or anywhere else where you’re listening and where you can leave a review. We’d love you to share your views with us and tell us what you think about the podcast.  Until next week Thanks for listening Bye for now.   PODCAST LINKS SUPPORT TO MAKE A COMPLAINT Here’s a link to Grievance Template Letters to help you write your letter of complaint Grievance template letters   Here’s a download giving you 15 key grievance actions you can follow to track how your employer deals with your complaint at work 15 Smart Grievance Actions Get help from ACAS here: https://www.acas.org.uk/   Employment Rights Online Facebook Page where you will find breaking news about the podcast and your employment rights: https://www.facebook.com/employmentrightsonline/   IF YOU HAVE MISSED EPISODES OF THE PODCAST You Can Listen to back editions of the podcast here ITUNES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/employment-rights-online-the-podcast/id1498158538 LIBSYN http://employmentrightsonline.libsyn.com/ SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5GZzg2aVogFC3bA9GQkHrc?si=PURhxhMlQeOXrzMvWK5ByA  Find us on: FACEBOOK I INSTAGRAM I TIKTOK
