Any employment law people on here??

[Oscar360]

Missus was taken into her managers office and had her contract terminated. No reason or paperwork given?

She asked if she had done anything wrong, and was told she hadn't. It's just a case of 'suitability'?!

No previous warning, reprimands or telling offs.

Her contract says she is entitled to 4 weeks notice from the company but this was not mentioned.

Tried to call the manager concerned but won't return her calls?

Please only comment if you know factually what you are saying is correct, many thanks guys!!

Massive headache!!!!! Aghhhhhhhh!

What kind of contract was she on? Terminated or redundancy?

 

[Oscar360]

Fixed 23hrs contract, no reason for termination. - simply terminated!

It depends how long she has worked there. If she was employed after April 2012 they can terminate employment for any reason apart from discrimination for up to two years. She is entitled to notice period pay but may not necessarily be asked to work it.

4 weeks pay is good. Im up for redundancy and have been here 6 years and im only being offered a months pay!

 

[Kelv]

im pretty sure 4 weeks is the minimum that they have to pay anyhow, as most companies have to honour a 4 week notice period but this can vary from contract to contract as its quite common to have a 6 month probation period anyhow, obviously they don't have to ask you to work the 4 week period but they do still have to pay you it.

many companies when it comes to redundancy offer 1 week for every completed year of service, from a minimum of 4 weeks up to a maximum of 12.

Yep turns out yet again this country is a joke! You must have two years continuous employment to have any rights!!!

F@@king joke!!!!!
