Unfair dismissal - help please!

Just to be nosey, how much did she get?

It is a shame she isn't going to pursue this, the payment is huge indication of his guilt and would go a long to a success in a tribunal.

I am presuming he hasn't asked her to sign a compromise agreement, has he?

He's not asked her to sign anything; the cheque was all that was in the envelope. It was under a grand, but over £500

She's happy enough to let this go; she's still trying to find another job and doesn't want a tribunal adding to the stress. Would have been a different story if he decided not to pay up but there you go. She's made a nice dent in his wallet for being a git, and who knows, he might start pulling his socks up for fear of being caught out fleecing his employees again.

I doubt that very much. She could always still report him to HMRC, I am sure they would be very interested in the, "no payslips" thing, as well as not paying the minimum wage.

Even if he had it would not be binding unless she had received independent legal advice and they had issued a certificate to that effect.
