Where to go for employment rights and advice

There is often a time in your life when an issue may arise at work that does not seem to have been sorted out correctly between you and your employer. It may be that you are at the point of having to take it further or possibly that you are just after a bit of advice and want to find out the law regarding a particular situation.

There are many places that offer free and impartial advice to employers and employee’s. If the matter is regarding tax, maternity or sick pay you may find it best to contact HMRC directly to discuss what should be happening. They may then refer you on to an independent company who will help you through the process of sorting out an employment related dispute. Many websites offer advice on legal issues in employment, but you should always be aware that there are sites that may give false or out of date advice.
