A Simple Online Conclusion Of » Employment Law Defamation Of Character Coupled With Other Research
[mage lang="" source="flickr"]employment law defamation of character[/mage]
I have been told that employment law gives you 3 mths to make a claim for loss of job- I need more info?
My employer labeled me as 'MILITANT' which is defamation of character when all I did was refuse to break the carriage of dangerous goods regulations.
He also exploited and bullied me until I was out of a job.
I have made complaints to the Health and Safety executive who are still making enquiries and performing investigations 4mths after-
- Am I able to still put in a case on the grounds that the government (HSE) has dragged its heels until the time limit has expired?
Can I get the time limit extended?
Due to being very confused and really depressed due to the way I have been treated doesn't count for anything then?
And does a lack of advice from the HSE count for anything?
Agree with JZD and old.holly265.
The "reasonably practicable" rule is interpreted increasingly narrowly by the court, and there is nothing in your situation which suggests you would have a case for an extension on that basis. Extensions only tend to be granted now where circumstances mean it was physically impossible for the applicant to have made the three month deadline, for example due to severely debilitating illness.
You can still apply of course, but you will be wasting your time.
