Tribunals and Employment Law Procedures - Suing for Unfair Dismissal

A network of employment tribunals and protective legislation is in place In the UK to ensure that fair treatment is given to both the employer and employee in what are often complex employment law scenarios.

2011-06-16
June 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) This example of an employment law Q&A reinforces the need to find a good employment solicitor to explain its intricacies.

What is the procedure when a former employee decides to sue for unfair dismissal?

The former employee would submit the form ET1 detailing the complaint, their personal information and any remedy sought. Employment solicitors can ensure this is done correctly.
Upon receipt of the ET1 the employer must respond with form ET3 within 28 days outlining the particulars of their response.

The parties involved will then enter the 'conciliation process' aimed at preventing a costly tribunal. Should conciliation fail a tribunal can be set for two weeks ahead.
Both parties may be represented by an employment solicitor and will generally pay their own costs. A decision will be provided in writing documenting the reasons for the ruling, to which you may appeal to the employment appeals tribunal should you disagree.

At Harrisons law firm we have a team of experienced employment solicitors who are dedicated to providing your solution to any employment law related problem, from knowing your employee rights to resolving your employment disputes.

A knockout resource for mouse genetics

2011-06-16
An international consortium of researchers report today in Nature that they have knocked out almost 40 per cent of the genes in the mouse genome. The completed resource will power studies of gene activity in models of human disease. The results are founded on a novel, efficient production line that is able to target each specific gene in turn. The consortium has cracked all the challenges of generating mutations of each gene in mouse embryonic stem cells, and has already knocked out 9,000 genes in the mouse genome as part of an international effort to knockout all 21,000. ...

Changing genetic 'red light' to green holds promise for treating disease

2011-06-16
In a new study published today in the journal Nature, scientists discovered an entirely new way to change the genetic code. The findings, though early, are significant because they may ultimately help researchers alter the course of devastating genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy and many forms of cancer. The genetic code is the set of instructions in a gene that tell a cell how to make a specific protein. Central to the body's protein production process is messenger RNA, or mRNA, which takes these instructions from DNA and directs the steps ...

Astronomers discover earliest black holes at dawn of universe

2011-06-16
New Haven, Conn.—Astronomers have been peering farther and farther into space, and back in time, using the world's most powerful telescopes to detect galaxies billions of light years away that existed when the universe was just a fraction of its current age. But detecting the giant black holes thought to lurk at the centers of those galaxies has proven much more difficult. Now a team of astronomers has discovered the earliest black holes ever detected, despite the fact that they are hidden from view by their host galaxies. They also measured the average growth rate of ...

Debenhams Reports Rise of Shirtego Men's Fashion Trend

2011-06-16
Debenhams has revealed that the de rigueur way for British men to wear their shirts this season is with three buttons undone, otherwise known as the 'shirtego' trend. Last seen on seventies lotharios such as Richard Gere in 'American Gigolo' and John Travolta in 'Saturday Night Fever', the bare chest has marked the return of the 'machosexual' - men who are not afraid to be masculine, confident and sexy. Department store, Debenhams asked its customers, "how low can you go?" and found that 75 per cent of men now regularly wear their shirt with three buttons ...

The top 5 actions parents can take to reduce child exposure to toxic chemicals at home

2011-06-16
Leading Canadian health and environmental experts today issued a list of the top five ways parents can protect their children from toxic substances in and around the home. Controlling house dust; switching to less-toxic, fragrance-free cleaners; taking extreme care with renovation projects; avoiding certain types and uses of plastics; and choosing fish that are low in mercury are the five priority actions recommended by the Canadian Partnership for Children's Health and Environment (CPCHE) to reduce common sources of toxic exposure associated with child health risks. ...

Specialty physicians turn away two-thirds of children with public insurance, Penn study shows

2011-06-16
PHILADELPHIA – Sixty-six percent of publicly-insured children were unable to get a doctor's appointment for medical conditions requiring outpatient specialty care including diabetes and seizures, while children with identical symptoms and private insurance were turned away only 11 percent of the time, according to an audit study of specialty physician practices in Cook County, Ill. conducted by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine and the School of Social Policy and Practice at the University of Pennsylvania. The findings are published in the June 16 issue of ...

Young adults struggle with online political participation

2011-06-16
Young adults who are web savvy, but lack knowledge about federal government, may struggle to use the web for political participation, according to a team of researchers. "There's a misconception that young adults are naturally skilled at all computer techniques," said Jens Grossklags, assistant professor of information sciences and technology, Penn State. "And while they might be comfortable on some sites and social networks, that doesn't necessarily mean that young adults know how to use the Internet for political participation." In an experiment, the researchers provided ...

The National Trust Reveals Butterflies are Back This Summer

2011-06-16
The National Trust has announced that this summer looks set to be the best for butterflies in more than 30 years as population's boom, sales of butterfly products increase and butterfly imagery is adopted by big high street brands. At the half way point in the butterfly season there has been a number of record breaking early appearances from spring species thanks to the warm and dry weather, especially in April. The favourable conditions are also leading experts to predict that a number of species will produce extra generations this year. Matthew Oates, wildlife ...

Medicaid managed care plans owned by public companies have higher administrative costs

2011-06-16
New York, NY, June 15, 2011—A new Commonwealth Fund report finds that Medicaid managed care plans that are owned by publicly traded for-profit companies whose primary line of business is managing Medicaid enrollees spent an average of 14 percent of premiums on administrative costs, compared with an average of only 10 percent spent by non-publicly traded plans owned by groups of health care providers, health systems, community health centers, or clinics. Sampling health plans with at least 5,000 enrollees resulted in an initial sample of 225 Medicaid managed care plans representing ...

Malaria vaccination strategy provides model for superior protection

2011-06-16
Malaria is a devastating disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite which is transmitted to humans by infected mosquitoes. Hundreds of millions of new cases of malaria are reported each year, and there are more than 750,000 malaria-related deaths annually. As a result, there is an urgent need for vaccines to combat infection. Now, a new study uncovers a powerful strategy for eliciting an immune response that can combat the parasite during multiple stages of its complex life cycle and describes what may be the most effective next-generation vaccination approach for malaria. ...
