CONTRACTS & LABOUR LAW SESSIONS FEBRUARY 2024
NO COST PRE-BRANCH MEETING SESSIONS
Unfair dismissals still have everything to do with procedural failings, little to do with fairness. Employers with the best evidence in defence of a dismissal commonly experience objectively unfair judgements. It is almost business lore that Labour Law always favours the employee and there is no fairness to be had. It’s time we get over losing, and find the fairness in actually following the procedures and managing contracts. We could all get better at winning!
