description: The risk of an unsuccessful Employment Tribunal hearing from the employer's perspective has risen dramatically as the potential compensation payout has risen four-fold.

You need to be fully prepared. This topical new briefing offers clear guidance for employers on how to avoid having a case taken to a tribunal in the first place, then, if it is inevitable, what to expect, and how to prepare and present the best possible case to ensure a positive outcome. Contents include: * Avoiding tribunals * Responding to a claim * Options and preliminaries * Types of cases: dismissal, redundancy, equal pay, discrimination, employment protection, contracts * Preparing for the tribunal * Attending the tribunal
