In order for an employee to be dismissed fairly, there has first got to be a fair reason for the dismissal.
May seem obvious, but establishing the reason for dismissal is crucial.
Once the reason has been established, it will then be necessary to follow the appropriate procedure.
In addition to unfair dismissal claims that may relate to the above, claims may also be commenced in relation to wrongful dismissal and automatically unfair dismissal.
Where a fair reason to dismiss is established, but a poor or inappropriate procedure has been applied, this is likely to lead to a finding of unfair dismissal.

A settlement agreement is a legally binding agreement whereby an employee can sign away rights to make employment related claims against an employer/ex employer, usually in return for a compensation package.
A properly drafted settlement agreement can provide the peace of mind that the employee/ex-employee will not take legal action against them in respect of their employment.
It is vital to make sure the settlement agreement is not only legally compliant, but that it protects the business by ensuring for example, due consideration is given to restrictive covenants, potential damage via social media following the employee's exit and that the package is commensurate with the circumstances.
