Lawyers slam government plans to restrict unfair dismissal claims

Comment

A good suggestion, why should there be statutory interference in what is a matter of contract? The inability to dismiss employees without going through consultation and fair selection, which is potentially always open to challenge will increase the UKs competitiveness and allow employers to move swiftly rather than drag out a process where productivity diminishes due, in part, to uncertainty in the workplace. The minimum notice period should, however be looked to strike an appropriate balance between employer and employee.
