Employment issue since sudden death of my mum

  • Nope neither of them two Casey.

    But I do expect people to be respectful. I never openly questioned anyone's advice in a disrespectful way if I disagree with them. If I do, I do it in respectful way and provide evidence to back up why i disagree with their advice. Yet in each debate/argument so far, its started with people calling me out.in a disrespectful way, saying I wrong, my advice us dangerous or nonsense. Whilst not providing anything to substantiate there claim.

    And I won't stand there and allow anyone to basically me or my advice. when I know my advice is right in law. If I am proven wrong, then I'll hold my hands up and apologise. But so far no ones proved my advice wrong in law. In fact I was providing case law to back up my argument.

    Someone provided stats to back up there point that only 7% of tribunal cases are won by employees. Yet didn't realises that the same stats backed up my point that most employment disputes are won by the employee. As the stats showed 51% of claims withdrawn pre tribunal hearing stage, therefore settled pre or during ACAS mediation stage. Granted not all withdrawn due to settlement offer, but majority are. Some disputes are settled by settlement offer prior to tribunal claim actually being made. So its actually reasonable to assume 50-60% of all tribunal claims issued end in favour of the employee, and not 7% as the other poster suggested.

    Anyway that's enough of that.

    Did you mention wine at all in a reply?
  • Sorry for your loss, though I dont think your employer is being unreasonable. Its nearly a year later and all they are doing is developing a plan to help raise your preformance, its not as if they are threatening to sack you.
