Mi az Unfair Dismissal? | HR glosszárium | BambooHR
Termination of employment that breaches statutory fairness in reason or process.
Unfair dismissal is the termination of an employee's contract in a way the law regards as unjustified, either because there was no fair reason or because a fair procedure was not followed. It gives eligible employees a route to redress.
In Ireland, the Unfair Dismissals Acts generally protect employees with at least one year's continuous service, though some dismissals — such as those for pregnancy, trade union activity or making a protected disclosure — are automatically unfair regardless of service. Claims are heard by the Workplace Relations Commission.
Employers defend such claims by showing a fair substantive reason and a fair process, including warnings, investigation and the right to representation where relevant. Consistent policies and thorough documentation are the best protection.
