Discrimination and grievances

An employer is not allowed to discriminate against an employee on the basis of race, sex, age, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation or because the employee is pregnant or has had a child, or have undergone gender reassignment, or are married or are in a civil partnership.

Discrimination usually occurs when an employee receives less favourable treatment than another employee, on the basis of their membership of a group protected by equality legislation.

At Eric Robinson Solicitors we can advise both employer and employees in respect of any of the four main types of discrimination:

Direct discrimination
Harassment
Indirect discrimination
Victimisation

Grievances Solicitors

Employers must give their employees a Statement of Terms and Conditions of Employment, which must include details of disciplinary and grievance procedures and how decisions can be appealed.

The main purpose of a grievance procedure is to give employees the opportunity to raise issues about their working relationship or their working environment. If a fair grievance procedure is not followed, this can affect the employee’s performance and their workplace relationships. It can also have a detrimental effect on their wellbeing.

Once a grievance has been raised, the employer has to follow a fair process in investigating and addressing it. If they don’t, then there could be a breach of the implied term of mutual trust and confidence between the employer and employee, perhaps resulting in a constructive dismissal claim in the employment tribunal.

At Eric Robinson Solicitors we can advise both employers and employees on all aspects of workplace grievances including how to structure and apply policies properly and fairly.

To speak to us and find out more, get in touch with one of our local branches at the following locations: Southampton, Hedge End, Chandlers Ford, Winchester, Lymington, or Richmond Upon Thames.

Flat buying process

I used Eric Robinson Solicitors to help purchase my first home and Chantelle couldn’t have been more helpful with the process, she constantly gave me updates and was very helpful with any inquiries I had, would definitely recommend them if you’re buying a home.

Sylvia Garcia

Sylvia Garcia, delt with the selling of my mums flat. It turned into a marathon, due to the buyers solicitors being incompetent and the buyer stalling for time. Sylvia was very much on my side but it was an emotional time for me. Sylvia was very professional with emails and always got back to me when l left a message. As an older person l would have liked to engage with someone face to face and didn’t realise Sylvia was working remotely. But, we got there in the end. And l thank her for her time and patience.

Great service

I found Terry Campbell-Barnard to be very knowledgeable and to have a very practical approach with a great attention to detail. His work was also undertaken in a very timely manner. I can therefore very much recommend him.

Helpful conveyancing team

Thanks to Sylvia Garcia and her team I successfully completed my flat purchase. As a first time buyer, she simplified the conveyance process and was very patient, polite and understanding, helping me resolve a tricky situation and getting the transaction over the line.
