This work covers how an employer manages an employee’s performance, including formal capability and conduct processes under employment law. A solicitor in this area helps with drafting and revising performance appraisal policies, preparing and reviewing capability and disciplinary procedures, gathering and organizing evidence, advising on warnings, demotion or dismissal, and representing or advising the client in hearings or at the Employment Tribunal. It also involves handling grievance procedures and communicating outcomes to the employee while ensuring compliance with the ACAS Code of Practice and statutory rights. The shapes of these matters are influenced by contract terms, equality law, and time‑bound procedures for disciplinary action.
The specific steps—formal capability or disciplinary procedures, warnings, investigations, and potential dismissal—have material consequences for the role, reputation, and livelihood of the employee. A solicitor provides protective measures such as compliant documentation, fair process, and proper notice that guard against claims of unfair dismissal or discrimination, while aligning proceedings with statutory and contractual requirements.
