Step by step guidance on the Employment Tribunal Process

In this episode 192 of the podcast I bring you the second in a mini series covering step by step guidance on the Employment Tribunal process. This is applicable for both employees who may want to make a claim and employers who may be defending a claim.

This second episode is about what happens after the claim and defence have been filed and includes:

• The different process that is likely to apply based on the type of claim.
• If it is a more complex case then it is likely the Tribunal will set a telephone case management hearing.
• What happens in simpler cases, such as straightforward unfair dismissal claims.
• The type of Order that the Employment Tribunal will make.
• Why it is important to check the dates of any hearings given by the Tribunal.
• The importance of contacting the Employment Tribunal asap if you or any witnesses are unavailable on the date that any hearing has been listed.
• The preparation required.
• Preparation of a schedule of loss.
• Disclosure of evidence.
• Agreeing the bundle of evidence.
• Why it is important to clearly note what is required and the date you must complete it by.
• Why you must adhere to the dates set by the Employment Tribunal.
• What you should do if you cannot complete the work required by the date set.
