Employment tribunal DVD backed by ACAS
Conciliatory service ACAS has helped to launch a new DVD aimed at helping guide employers and individuals through the employment tribunal process.
The DVD, entitled ‘The Essential Guide to Employment Tribunals’, offers advice on whether it is necessary to go to tribunal, as well as comprehensive guidance on how to prepare and what to expect once they get there.
The DVD, produced by legal firm Capital Law and Channel Television in association with ACAS, also contains interviews with experts and a dramatised case study demonstrating what happens at a tribunal.
Commenting on the DVD, ACAS Chief Executive John Taylor said: “The advice throughout is sensible and unbiased – and I think most people will find it an excellent learning tool. We want to make sure that everyone who sees this DVD considers ACAS as their first stop.
“Our primary concern is to help avoid tribunal cases it at all possible. My advice would be 'Don’t even go there', if there were another way to solve your individual workplace dispute fairly and amicably. The cost, stress and disruption to lives and business can be huge. People often don’t think about this – or underestimate the consequences – before they decide to go ahead.”
Chris Nott of Capital Law said that the DVD was produced because they believed that anyone who was involved in a tribunal hearing “would benefit from a clear understanding of how the process works”. He said: “They also need to be aware of the options available to them before getting to the hearing stage. There is something here for everyone, from employers and individuals to HR advisers and the legal profession.”
David Evans, from Channel Television said that the DVD was as “user-friendly as possible”. He said: “Information is grouped in easy-to-access chapters providing a practical common-sense approach to subject learning.”
The Essential Guide to Employment Tribunals DVD is available, priced £34.95, by contacting: 0870 42 90 90 or through the ACAS website: www.acas.org.uk
