We look at four employment tribunal cases in which the claimants successfully argued that the mishandling of the disciplinary process rendered their dismissals unfair.

We look at four recent discrimination cases where the tribunals upheld the claims and ordered the employers to pay compensation, including one of the highest ever discrimination awards.
