Your right there Bandit, although as a Manager / Owner of a business employing 30 people I’m glad to see the balance coming back to Employers, you wouldnt believe the amount of time that is WASTED in UK businesses with Employee complaints.
Arn’t the statics for number of employees invloved in complaints against there employers something like 1 in 4 in the UK at the moment ? and we wonder why were in the shite… employees in the Far East dont work like that !
You are right though, the laws work in both ways however, 3 out of 4 constructive dismissal cases have been found in FAVOUR of the employee.. there is a default to the Employer beeing at fault.. but if you step through the steps employees can avoid it.
In the end I feel that employees dont benifit from current rules, employers dont, but the legal profession does and the people who like owt for nowt do to…..
but think who covers the cost of all these claims against employers
