Employment law manual: Termination of employment

One of the many consequences of the coronavirus pandemic is that some of the employment measures taken by employers, including health and safety arrangements, may lead to claims of unfair dismissal and automatic unfair dismissal. Ensuring a dismissal is fair, and that the process stands up to inspection, can be a challenge for employers and HR.

To help you navigate this tricky area, we have:

• enhanced our content on Unfair dismissal and Disciplinary rules and procedures to make it more practical and accessible; and
• created a new separate section on Automatic unfair dismissal.
