Employment Law?
My company is in the process of disciplining (formally) one of our staff for various braches of policy’s and procedures, this under normal circumstances would be reasonable however this person is suffering from some from of mental illness, is their any case law or statue to prevent them taking this action
Thanks
I am in the UK
Involving a solicitor a solicitor would be a good idea, like calling a plumber if you have a leak??
Under UK law a solicitor is not allowed to represent clients at company disciplinary hearings the 1999 Employment Relations Act (s10) lays down employee’s representation rights
I was sort of aiming for the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) angle but can’t find any case law …
Employment law varies tremendously from state to state. So, in order to understand your company’s position, you’d need to provide the jurisdiction in which this activity is taking place.
You should consult an experienced employment lawyer in your area…or consult your trade association to see if they have some legal resources.
