Your Starting Point for Understanding Your Rights

Workplace problems can be confusing. This page is designed to help you identify the issue you’re facing and guide you to the right resources.

If you have been dismissed or are facing redundancy...

Losing your job is a serious event, and it must be done fairly and lawfully. If you feel your dismissal was unfair or that the reason given was not the true reason, you may have a claim.

If you are being treated unfairly because of who you are...

The law protects you from being treated less favourably because of your age, race, gender, disability, religion, sexual orientation, or other "protected characteristics." This is known as discrimination or harassment.

If you are dealing with bullying, an unfair workload, or a breakdown in your relationship with a manager...

These issues can make your work life unbearable. The first step is often to raise a formal internal complaint (a grievance) to have the issue officially investigated.

If your employer is mishandling your personal data or has failed a safeguarding duty...

Organisations have a legal duty to protect your data and ensure a safe environment. Failures in these areas are serious and can be challenged both internally and with external regulators.
