Your employment dispute may be related to your selection for redundancy, unfair reason for dismissal, unfair treatment because you raised a complaint, or due to your race, sex, disability, sexual orientation, religion or beliefs.
You may also feel that you are being harassed, victimised or bullied.
We'll ensure your rights are protected and that you're compensated where your employer has breached your rights.

Important things to consider
Ensure you read your contract of employment and staff manual carefully. These should set out your obligations and those of your employer.
