Employment Law: Understanding Dismissals

Understanding how employment law works is essential for reps. This series of workshops will give an introduction to how the law works and how this relates to the role of the rep. As the new government tables new employment laws, we will be scheduling extra courses to cover new legislation throughout the year. Watch this space!

Who are these courses for?

  • New reps/stewards who have completed the Organising Stewards course
  • Any experienced activists/reps/officers who want a refresher on the law

This workshop will give you an understanding of:

  • How dismissals can occur
  • What is a fair or unfair dismissal?
  • Circumstances where dismissals can occur
  • The remedies members have against dismissal

Monday 24th February | 09:30-12:00 | Online
