The ACAS Code is intended to help employers and employees deal effectively with issues of alleged misconduct or poor performance in the workplace. When deciding whether an employee has been unfairly dismissed for misconduct or poor performance, an employment tribunal will consider whether the employer has followed a fair procedure. In doing so, it must take account of any provisions of the ACAS Code that appear to be relevant. We can provide you with suitable disciplinary/capability policies and guide you through each step of the necessary procedure when disciplining your staff.
