What are the possible costs an employer may incur in an employment tribunal?
In addition to any compensation awarded to claimants during an employment tribunal, employers who violate employee rights and exhibit “one or more aggravating features” may face additional financial penalties imposed by the tribunal. These penalties range from a minimum of £100 to a maximum of £20,000, depending on the compensation awarded to the employee (the lower the damages, the lower the fine).
Employers can benefit from a 50% discount if they pay within 21 days of receiving the tribunal’s decision. As evident, the costs associated with employment tribunals can be significant if the ruling is not in your favour, highlighting the importance of securing the best employment tribunal representation.
