Lawyers slam government plans to restrict unfair dismissal claims

In a company of six people in a Harrogate-based communications company I saw three staff leave in three months, two of them in tears. Since then the firm has had an entire new team approximately every 12 months for the last several years!! I was sacked just within the 3 month period for staying away from work with a heavy cold! I have an impeccable work record over thirty years and was told if I took any grievance (I lost another job as a result) it would be "malicious!" What is going to be done about abusive employers who use the law to wreck people's lives??
