Employment Dispute: Dismissal, Pay, Court

A programme for those facing violations of labour rights. You will study which rights labour law protects and how they apply in practice. Dedicated blocks cover the employment contract and its terms, unlawful dismissal and grounds for reinstatement, redundancy and payments, delayed and unpaid wages, overtime and extra hours, disciplinary sanctions and how to challenge them, the liability of employee and employer, holidays and sick leave, occupational safety and workplace injuries. The procedural part covers the pre-trial claim, the labour dispute commission, the labour inspectorate, court and filing deadlines, evidence and witnesses, and enforcement proceedings. By the end you assemble a personal dispute strategy and a document pack.
