Advice from us on Employment

If you are unsure about your employment rights, we can advise you according to your written contract.  If you do not have a written contract we can advise you about your statutory rights, including the minimum wage and holiday pay.

We can give advice about benefits or tax credits you are entitled to when in work. We can also advise on race and sex discrimination at work.

We can give you practical assistance, by

• helping you make a claim for unpaid wages
• checking redundancy payments are correct
• advising on changes to terms and conditions
• advising on your employee's individual rights
• identifying possible claims for unfair dismissal.

If necessary we can help take a claim to an employment tribunal and represent you free of charge.

If your problem is complex we can arrange an appointment with a specialist employment adviser.
