Section 93 Complaints to employment tribunal.F1C1C2C3C4
England, Wales and Scotland
A complaint may be presented to an employment tribunal by an employee on the ground that—
the employer unreasonably failed to provide a written statement under section 92, or
the particulars of reasons given in purported compliance with that section are inadequate or untrue.
Where an employment tribunal finds a complaint under this section well-founded, the tribunal—
may make a declaration as to what it finds the employer’s reasons were for dismissing the employee, and
shall make an award that the employer pay to the employee a sum equal to the amount of two weeks’ pay.
An employment tribunal shall not consider a complaint under this section relating to the reasons for a dismissal unless it is presented to the tribunal at such a time that the tribunal would, in accordance with section 111, consider a complaint of unfair dismissal in respect of that dismissal presented at the same time.
