An employment tribunal is an independent legal forum that deals with workplace disputes, such as unfair dismissal, discrimination, unpaid wages and some redundancy claims. Before making most claims in Great Britain, you usually need to notify Acas and go through Early Conciliation. Strict time limits commonly apply, often three months less one day from the relevant event, although the rules can vary. A tribunal’s decision depends on the evidence and individual circumstances, and it may order compensation or another remedy where appropriate.
