Employees - Your Employment Rights
To have a successful employment claim you will have to prove one of your employment rights have been breached by your employer. Once you think that your employment rights are being breached then you have to prove this fact and work out how to get compensation (FAQS: Employment Law Practice). You may try to sort out the problems by yourself or you can use the help and advice of employment solicitors to guide you.
The main reasons employees contact employment solicitors are the following:-
1. You want to understand your contractual rights
You are about to start a new job and you are unclear as to what your employment contract really means (FAQS: Employment Contracts).
You are not being paid your anticipated bonus.
You want to leave and start a new business or work for a competitor (FAQS: Restrictive Covenants in Employment and Injunctions).
2. You want to know your employment rights
You are being unfairly dismissed (FAQS: Unfair dismissal).
You are being wrongfully or constructively dismissed (FAQS: Wrongful Dismissal or Constructive Dismissal).
