Chapter II Remedies for unfair dismissal

Introductory

111 Complaints to F1employment tribunal.

1

A complaint may be presented to an F1employment tribunal against an employer by any person that he was unfairly dismissed by the employer.

2

Subject to subsection (3), an F1employment tribunal shall not consider a complaint under this section unless it is presented to the tribunal—

a

before the end of the period of three months beginning with the effective date of termination, or

b

within such further period as the tribunal considers reasonable in a case where it is satisfied that it was not reasonably practicable for the complaint to be presented before the end of that period of three months.

3

Where a dismissal is with notice, an F1employment tribunal shall consider a complaint under this section if it is presented after the notice is given but before the effective date of termination.

4

In relation to a complaint which is presented as mentioned in subsection (3), the provisions of this Act, so far as they relate to unfair dismissal, have effect as if—

a

references to a complaint by a person that he was unfairly dismissed by his employer included references to a complaint by a person that his employer has given him notice in such circumstances that he will be unfairly dismissed when the notice expires,

b

references to reinstatement included references to the withdrawal of the notice by the employer,

c

references to the effective date of termination included references to the date which would be the effective date of termination on the expiry of the notice, and

d

references to an employee ceasing to be employed included references to an employee having been given notice of dismissal.
