Redundancies and Dismissals

There are five potentially fair reasons for dismissal. They are:

• Incapacity
• Misconduct
• Redundancy
• Contravention of a duty or restriction
• Some other substantial reason

In any dismissal of someone who has the necessary length of service, not only must there be one of these reasons, but there must also be a fair procedure. At Gowen & Stevens we can advise both employers and employees about both parts of the process.

If matters are not dealt with correctly then a claim can be made in the Employment Tribunal. For more information about our services and fees please CLICK HERE.
