Re: Unfair dismissal could be abolished
I would have thought that if the ECHR applies to dismissals then someone 'unfairly' dismissed within their first year of employment would have tested this in the courts by now, as the ECHR has been law in this country for more then ten years. My suspicion is it ECHR doesn't apply directly to dismissal law.
If the timescale was to change to unlimited then any court case raised by the former employee may need to funded by that person.
I don't think their case would qualify for a share of the reduced legal aid budget and the government is trying to eliminate no-win-no-fee. Therefore someone without an income is going to have to risk their finances to clear their name
