Employment law is the section of UK legislation which dictates the terms of the relationship between an employee and the employer, company or entity that employs them.
These laws outline the rights and duties of the employee, and limits the power of employers to ensure they do not exploit the workforce.
Laws relating to the workplace are constantly adapting to the modern environment, including factors such as wages, discrimination, and health and safety regulations.
Understanding the key employment laws in the UK is crucial for both employees and employers. Here are some of the most important laws that might affect you:
Proper enforcement of these laws in the workplace ensures that your workplace is not only compliant with the current legislation, but also safe, inclusive and efficient. If you believe a breach of these regulations has happened in your work, leading to dismissals or injuries, contact Rowlinsons Solicitors today for an assessment of your case.
The costs associated with your Employment Law case can vary depending on how complex your case is and the type of advice and representation you require.
We can, after having assessed your case, sometimes offer a fixed fee service for employment law cases. This will depend on a careful review of the documentation and circumstances.
You can read about our fees on our employment law fees page.
As specialist Employment Solicitors for Employees, we always aim to resolve all matters without involving a court. This will allow your case to be concluded in a considerably shorter time, and keep costs low.
However, employers and companies may push back on an out-of-court resolution, or attempt to settle the case for a smaller amount than what you could be entitled to.
We can represent you in these cases, ensuring your rights and interests are protected.
If you believe your employment rights have been ignored by an employer, having expert legal advice can make the difference. With the help of the Employment Law specialists at Rowlinsons Solicitors, you are guaranteed tailored legal advice that is based on your circumstances and needs.
We understand the stress that comes with making a claim against a past or current employer. This is why we take care of all communication, liaising on your behalf with all relevant parties, such as the company, unions, and managers.
Our Employment Law Solicitors provide guidance through the whole process, from the collection of evidence down to the negotiation of a settlement agreement.
There are five potentially fair reasons that an employer can rely upon to dismiss an employee. If you feel you have been wrongfully dismissed or unfairly dismissed our experts can explain your options, the process involved in seeking redress and your chances of success.
There are nine protected characteristics in employment law: gender, age, disability, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, religion or belief, and gender reassignment. If you feel you have been treated differently due to any of these characteristics you may be entitled to make a discrimination claim against your employer.
If you have been made redundant or believe that you are at risk of being made redundant, then we would strongly recommend that you seek legal advice so that you can understand your rights and also the responsibilities of your employer.
It is essential you take independent legal advice before signing a settlement agreement to ensure the terms of the agreement are fair and that you understand your obligations and the responsibilities of your employer.
Our specialist team of Employment Law Solicitors for Employees provide expert legal advice to employees, staff and contractors when their rights are not respected by an employer or company.
