Compensation for Unfair Dismissal - Introduction
This is where an Employment Tribunal will place an employee back in their old job and pay compensation for the loss of wages for the time out of the job. Also, see Additional Award
2. Re-engagement
The employee returns to a similar job with the employer. Also, see Additional Award
It is very rare for either of these to be ordered by an Employment Tribunal. The reason for this is that they are reluctant to force an employer to take an employee back.
3. Compensation
This is what usually happens if the employee wins their case.
This is split into the Basic Award and the Compensatory Award.
Capped
However, it is important to note that the Compensatory Award is also capped at an employee's yearly salary - please see Compensatory Award.
