Can employers dismiss someone without giving a final written warning?
I advise that you lodge a grievance with your employer, as this is the first thing that you need to do before you can take them to a tribunal. It does sound to me like you have been dismissed without them following full procedures. Usually, the stages would be as follows (and this is all that is required by law): – Verbal Warning – Written Warning – Dismissal So technically, your employer has complied with that. However, if what is in your terms and conditions of employment is different, then this should override this. You seem like you have a clear understanding of what your contact does state, so if this hasn’t been complied with, then yes, you’ve been dimissed unfairly.
