Employment

Usdaw representatives and officials are ready to help you resolve any type of employment problem, including:

  • Redundancy.
  • Dismissal.
  • Discrimination.
  • Contract claims.
  • Equal pay.
  • Family friendly rights.
  • Part-time workers' rights.
  • Unlawful deductions.
  • Minimum wage.
We'll try to settle the problems using your usual company procedures. By law, your employer must allow your Usdaw rep to come with you to all disciplinary and grievance hearings.

If we can't sort out the problem this way, your Usdaw team will advise you about taking the case further.

Our full-time officials (Area Organisers) and the Usdaw Legal Department provides the advice and representation in employment tribunal cases.

Tribunal claims must be lodged within strict time limits - normally within three months less one day from the date of dismissal or cause of complaint. You are responsible for making your claim in time, so speak to your Usdaw rep as soon as you know you have a problem. Make sure you always follow the company grievance and appeal procedures.

For help and advice about an employment problem contact the Usdaw rep in your workplace. Your local Usdaw office can be reached on 08545 6060640.
