Employees please note: As from the 1st of October 2004, applicants must exhaust internal procedure before making an application to the Employment Tribunals. If an application is made without going through the internal grievance or disciplinary procedures, the application will be dismissed.

Employers please note: Employers who do not ensure that the proper procedures are applied in each case may be excluded from the Tribunal process.

The Employment Appeal Tribunal recently stated that a delay in dealing with the internal dismissal procedure may result in the dismissal being automatically unfair.

If you are an employer and you want to employ a migrant worker, you must register with the Home Office. See below under immigration.

Employers are required to register with the Home Office if they employ or intend to employ anyone who is a migrant worker. Please note that a person who is a national of a European Union state is not a migrant worker for the purposes of the new rules.

Employers are liable to a fine of up to £10,000 if they employ a migrant worker without taking the appropriate steps. 

Anyone who trains or teaches a person who is not resident in the United Kingdom, must register with the Home Office.
