What Is Employment Law?

Employment law is incredibly vast, it governs the relationship between employers and employees, regulating everything from hiring and contracts to termination, discrimination, and workplace safety.

It essentially ensures that fair practices are upheld in all aspects of employment and that both parties understand their rights and commitments.

The scope of employment law is broad and includes matters such as redundancy, unfair dismissal, grievances, disciplinary actions, restrictive covenants, whistleblowing, and equal pay. For a more in depth look at what legal services are involved with UK employment law, take a look below.

Legal Services Involved with Employment Law

Our employment solicitors provide comprehensive support for a wide range of employment-related matters.

We work with both employees and employers, offering legal advice and representation when disputes arise.

Some of the key areas we regularly assist with include, but aren’t limited to:

#1 Constructive and Unfair Dismissal

As an employee, if you’ve been dismissed unfairly or feel forced to resign due to your employer’s behaviour, our team can assess your position and help you pursue a claim if viable.

#2 Redundancy

Our employment law solicitors can advise on redundancy procedures, ensuring that proper legal processes are followed and that affected employees are treated fairly and in line with UK employment law.

#3 Discrimination in the Workplace

Discrimination on the basis of age, race, sex, disability, religion, pregnancy, or sexual orientation is unlawful. If you’ve experienced unfair treatment or bias at work, we can help you take action.

#4 Harassment and Bullying

We support employees who are facing harassment and help employers implement procedures that prevent and address inappropriate conduct in the workplace.

#5 Whistleblowing

Employees who report wrongdoing are protected under whistleblower legislation. We advise on how to raise concerns legally and safely, and support employers handling such reports appropriately.

#6 Breach of Contract

Whether it’s an unlawful deduction from wages, or a failure to honour notice terms, we help resolve breaches of employment contracts for the employee or employer.

From day-to-day guidance to complex litigation, our employment law legal advice is always commercially focused and tailored to your circumstances.

Who our Employment Law Solicitors Help

At BBS Law, we advise a wide range of clients that are both employees and employers. This goes for multinational companies to individual employees. No case is too big or too small, as our employment solicitors understand the pressures faced by each party in the employment relationship and tailor advice accordingly.

For employers, we provide support to minimise risk before a dispute can arise, this means ensuring compliance, and working to implement a strong foundation for hiring.

For employees on the other hand, we can offer representation in disputes with employers, ensuring your rights are at the forefront and you receive the fair treatment you deserve.

Our dual expertise enables us to offer balanced insight across both sides of the employment spectrum, ensuring we remain commercially aware while never losing sight of the human impact of employment issues.

How to Start an Employment Law Case

If you’re facing an employment-related issue, the first step is to seek timely legal advice.

Employment law is fast paced in terms of legality, and certain claims, such as unfair dismissal or discrimination, are subject to strict time limits. In fact, a claimant has 3 months minus 1 day from the date their employment ended to make a case.

To begin your case with BBS Law, we recommend booking an initial consultation where we can review your situation and offer a clear, tailored strategy. From there, we’ll support you every step of the way, whether that involves negotiations, formal grievance processes, or representation before an Employment Tribunal.

We pride ourselves on being responsive, our solicitors work closely with clients to understand their priorities, offering clear guidance and practical solutions with minimal disruption to your business activities or life.
