Disciplinary

[Sarah836]

Help needed please. I have been made redundant and have appealed the decisions as unfair process. I heard calls that had been recorded via a call recording system that appeared to make the decisions unfair. I have full access to this system, I have now been informed that I have broken data protection. Although I have never been told about any restrictions when using this system. They have threatened to with draw the redundancy settlement and start disciplinary action against me. Are they able to do this??? They also want me to sign a settlement agreement.
your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Sarah,

Not an expert at employment law, but one thing strikes me - I took this from findlaw.co.uk (sorry for the horrible formatting!)

Hope it helps!

Can I request information as part of a grievance process?Employees may sometimes wish to make requests regarding data held by employers in relation to disciplinary or grievance procedures. Examples of such requests include asking for witness interview statements, or computer records.
Employers are bound to provide such information, in order to facilitate a fair hearing. If your employer fails to provide such information and you are then dismissed, it may be that the failure constitutes an unfair dismissal, and you should seek legal advice.

I have removed the links. For future reference Kate, it would be polite to contact the site admin if you wish to advertise on the site. As things stand it isn't something we allow or encourage unless there is a specific benefit to the consumer. For employment related questions we always recommend speaking to ACAS first and foremost.
