Evidence Supporting Dismissal

Overview

For a dismissal to be fair, the employer must have a genuine belief in the misconduct or capability issue, based on reasonable grounds, after a reasonable investigation.

Contradictory or missing evidence can render a dismissal unfair.

What you can do

1. 01

   Review the evidence

   Request all documents the employer relied upon (e.g., via a Subject Access Request).

2. 02

   Highlight contradictions

   Point out inconsistencies in the employer's timeline or witness statements.
