Simone our HR specialist writes

The Tribunal Service has released its statistics for 2008-9.  Claim numbers totalled 151,028.

There has been a significant jump in the number of unfair dismissal claims between April 2008 and March 2009 to 52,711.  This represents a 29% increase.  This was the largest single category of claim.

How much did they cost? I hate to think!
