Early Conciliation; If you are considering making a claim against your Employer read this

  1. If you are thinking of making a claim against your Employer via an Employment Tribunal you must first of all complete an on line notification form to ACAS (Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service).
  2. Early Conciliation is not obligatory but the completion of a notification form is.
  3. It does not cost anything to submit the notification form, nor does the form require detailed information.
  4. It will not be possible to submit a claim to an Employment Tribunal without first obtaining from ACAS a certificate number after the submission of a notification form.
  5. You can find the online form here.
  6. ACAS can guide parties through the process but cannot give legal advice.
  7. We can assist you with conciliation, including an early evaluation of the merits of any purported claim and the likely value if successful.
  8. Contact us via our contact form, by sending an email to [email protected] or by calling your nearest office (numbers at the top of the page).
