Employers are not allowed just to dismiss you. They need to have a good reason to do so if you feel that this is not the case. Employment Law Friend is a company that can look into your Constructive Dismissal Claim. All companies in the UK must have a disciplinary procedure in place. It is a legal requirement for a business to have one. This is to protect both you and the company that you work for.
There are several instances that would lead you to suspect the dismissal has been unfair. Did you ask for flexible working, for example? This has become a popular question as many of us are trying to change how we work based on the pandemic and the challenges it has brought. Employers must consider a request. Perhaps you have been asked to work through breaks and lunch. Again these are legal requirements for an employer to observe and if you are dismissed because of it you have a serious case. Joining a Trade union is another or taking part in approved industrial action.
One of the most controversial is when you have been a whistleblower. Whistleblowing is supposed to be anonymous, but if it’s discovered that you have been the one that has done it, you cannot be sacked for it. There are plenty of other examples that you can look at. If you feel that this is the case, you should undoubtedly research it.
