Constructive Dismissal

A constructive dismissal is the term used for an employee’s resignation due to the employer’s behavior. The reasons for this may include cutting a worker's wages without agreement, unlawfully demoting them, effecting a change in the location of the job at short notice, false accusations, humiliation or discrimination, or making them work in dangerous conditions. A solicitor acting on behalf of an employee may bring a constructive dismissal claim at an employment tribunal, but the actions of the employer must amount to a fundamental breach of contract. Not every breach of contract entitles an employee to claim constructive dismissal compensation. A case for constructive dismissal can be claimed in the Employment Tribunal within 3 months of the last day of employment, and that is where Legal Compare can assist you.
