Issues of concern could include:

 The way you are treated at work or the behaviour of other employees;

 The terms and conditions of your contract;

 Tasks you are being asked to do at work; and

 Conditions in the workplace.

Fortunately there are rules in place which mean that you should be able to take

action if you are having genuine issues at work.

Being aware of your rights under employment law

can be a huge help.

Disciplinary proceedings

Your employer may bring disciplinary proceedings against you if they feel that your

behaviour in the workplace or performance in your role are of an unacceptable

standard. Even in this situation, however, they are expected to follow appropriate

procedures and treat you fairly.

If you are facing disciplinary proceedings in the workplace, make sure you know your

rights and read up on what you can expect to happen with our guide to disciplinary

procedures. You should also check your employer’s disciplinary procedure.

Grievances

If you have a workplace issue which has not been dealt with to your satisfaction

through informal means, you may want to consider raising a grievance. A grievance

is a formal complaint that your employer will be obliged to investigate using

appropriate and fair processes.

Whether your issue relates to your workload, poor management, the behaviour of

other co-workers, or any other work problem, take a look at our post on grievances to

find out what you should do next. You should also check your employer’s grievance

procedure.

Employment tribunals

If you feel that an issue at work has not been resolved properly despite having

undergone your employer’s formal complaints procedures, you may want to consider

having your case heard at an employment tribunal. Employment tribunals are

independent bodies which can make a ruling on whether you are being treated

unfairly at work.

It is illegal for your employer or other workers to discriminate against you at work.

Discrimination includes situations where you are treated less favourably due to one

or more of what are termed ‘protected characteristics’.

Health and safety

Your employer is required by law to ensure that your workplace is as safe as

possible, and that any risks are recognised and minimised. Health and safety covers

all kinds of workplace hazards, ranging from keeping people safe around dangerous

machinery to maintaining a comfortable temperature in an office; and if your

employer does not take it seriously there could be severe repercussions.

For more information about your employer’s responsibilities regarding health and

safety in the workplace, take a look at our post about health and safety.

When work comes to an end

Leaving your job can be unpleasant, particularly if you do not agree with your

employer’s approach or feel you were unfairly forced out. If you think your employer

acted illegally in terminating your role, you may be able to make a claim.
