Chapter 12

What is the deadline for any claim?

[ch 12: page 405]

The deadline for a tribunal claim for unfair dismissal is three months from the date of dismissal. The first step in any tribunal claim is to submit an Acas Early Conciliation Notification Form. This step must be taken before the expiry of the three-month deadline for bringing the claim. As with all tribunal claims, there are now fees. See Chapter 13 for information on tribunal fees, remission and Acas conciliation.
