  • Part Time work: Unfair dismissal

    Hi

    Sorry If I am posting in the wrong place but I am new to the site. I am 16 years old and I am currently work part time for a well known fast food restaurant. I have been working there for 3 months and have been constantly put under pressure by the management. I have received little training and have been put under severe pressure by the managers to speed up on a regular basis. This is highly stressful, espescially in the vicinity of hot ovens and chip oil.The other day I was called into the office by the new on shift manager and was told that If I didn't speed up, I would be dismissed. Does management have the right to dismiss me, on this basis? I have been told by other supervisors that I have been performing well, so for me to be told this by the manager came as a shock. I am just wondering, If I was to be sacked, would I have any right to complain about being unfairly dismissed.

    Thank you for reading.

    i am going to be blunt on this one

    until you have your qualifying service in, 2 years to take a claim to an employment tribunal.

    the employer can do what they like with no come back

    the only time you can take it to a tribunal is for wages and a breach of your protected characteristics

      One thing i am totally against was the Tories changing the qualifying period from 1 year to 2 years, as most unfair dismissals happen within 2 year periods. Fine Example of the TORIES looking after their businessmen party donors.
