Workplace Discrimination Legal Steps
Summary
If you face workplace issues like age discrimination, harassment, or unfair treatment, you are protected under laws such as the Equality Act 2010 and Employment Rights Act 1996. If your workplace lacks a grievance procedure, you can raise the issue informally or write a formal letter. Contact ACAS for advice or consider an Employment Tribunal if unresolved. For financial constraints, explore free legal advice from Citizens Advice or pro bono services. You may qualify for fee remission when filing a tribunal claim. To apply, complete the EX160 form with personal and income details, and submit it with your ET1 claim form. For the ET1 form, provide personal, employment, and claim details, and specify remedies sought.Full Conversation

I am writing to formally demand that Headland Venture LTD immediately ceases its continued mishandling of serious workplace issues and breaches of employment law. Despite my persistent efforts to resolve these matters, including communications dated November 1st, *, the company has failed to act on its promises and obligations, leaving an employee clueless on a day-to-day basis, failure to respond to SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS AND FAILIURES IN THE WORKPLACE from HR since 1st November * via WHATSAPP. I'm protected by employment rights act * and Data Protection Law and Human Rights Act Article *.
