Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need happyresolutions.co.uk?
What services do we offer?
Employment disputes is an ongoing issue and the latest regulations have left employees with less than 2 years substantive service at a greater disadvantage as this allows employers to dismiss staff without risk being sued in an employment tribunal for claims that do not fall under the protected rights. We see a great opportunity for the kind of service we offer. There are free legal services such as: FRU (Free Representation Unit), PSU (Personal Service Unit), Bar Pro bono,Yess (Your Employment Settlement Service) however, these organisations offer legal advice and in some cases representations in employment tribunal hearings, but they do not support employees with services such as attending internal work meetings such as disciplinary or grievances.
Moreover, advice from the above mentioned organisations isn’t immediately accessible and impersonal in comparison to what we propose to offer.
What we will NOT do
-
Provide representation at tribunals.
-
Deal with case correspondence on your behalf.
-
Take formal minutes of hearings.
Our service should NOT be taken instead of seeking legal advice from qualified persons especially if you are planning to file an employment tribunal claim: however, it is an added value service and it is practical for people attending work meetings because lawyers can not attend such meetings.
