No Win, No Fee – We Fight for Your Rights

You resigned due to employer conduct (possible constructive dismissal).

You must raise the personal grievance within 90 days of the action or when you became aware of it (whichever is later). There are limited exceptional circumstances for late claims; sexual harassment PGs have 12 months.

Possibly. If your resignation was due to constructive dismissal (the employer’s actions or inaction made your job untenable), you may raise a personal grievance.
On a valid 90‑day trial, you generally can’t bring a PG for unjustified dismissal, but you can bring claims for discrimination or harassment. Trial periods must be agreed in writing before you start and meet strict criteria.
Reinstatement is a possible remedy if it’s practicable and reasonable; other remedies include lost wages and compensation for hurt/humiliation.
