Employees and other workers (who might not count as employees) have rights and entitlements in relation to how they are disciplined, dismissed and have their grievances handled. The rights of an employee in law also covers: wages, absence from work, sickness, holidays, working hours, maternity and paternity leave, redundancy and retirement. All workers have the right not to be discriminated against in relation to their gender or orientation, race, age, disabilities, or religion and beliefs. If you feel like you have been discriminated against or have been denied your rights then you are entitled to take your employer to an employment tribunal.

There are various criteria to fulfill when bringing a claim in the employment tribunal and your Cambridge employment lawyer will be able to go over these with you in detail. In most cases, however, there is a requirement to have been in work for that employer for a certain number of years or be on a contract of employment, unless your case is for discrimination in which case there is no minimum requirement. In any case one of our highly trusted solicitors will be able to explain this to you in detail.
