This work covers how an employer handles an employee who is not meeting the required standards of performance, and the steps taken when capability is in doubt. A solicitor practising in this area will guide the process under employment law, draft and review disciplinary and capability procedures, prepare and respond to evidence, and represent the client at hearings. The focus is on ensuring fair assessment, proper notice, and lawful, proportionate action in pursuit of a resolution that protects the client’s position and helps manage performance issues.
The stakes are high because a poor performance matter can lead to disciplinary action, dismissal, or damage to the employee’s career. A solicitor provides guidance on the legal process, safeguards against unfair treatment, and ensures procedures comply with statutory rights and the ACAS code. They prepare key documents, gather performance data, and represent the client at disciplinary and appeal hearings, including rights of appeal and potential tribunal involvement.
