Employment law can be confusing – particularly as your legal rights sometimes differ, depending on whether you are classed as an employee, a contractor or you are working as a self-employed freelancer.
We can cut through the jargon and red tape to help you understand your legal rights.
If you are facing redundancy, a disciplinary hearing, harassment, victimisation, discrimination or a dismissal at work, you need to make sure your rights are protected.
