How to go to an employment tribunal

The guides on this page are for anyone who has been treated poorly at work and is thinking about standing up for themselves by taking the issue to an employment tribunal.

We understand how being treated unfairly at work can impact your whole life, even how you see yourself.

We have written this series of guides to support you to work out if you can or should take your case to the employment tribunal, and to help you to do it well - even if you cannot find an adviser or barrister to help you, and cannot afford to pay for help.
