    ERA Explained: Unfair dismissal changes - High risk dismissals and settlement strategies

    In the third episode of our ERA Explained podcast, Kate Redshaw is joined by Katie Wooller and Luke Bowery to discuss how the removal of the compensation cap for unfair dismissal claims alongside the reduction in the qualifying period to six months might affect high risk dismissals.  This conversation explores where the change is likely to have the greatest impact, including senior executive exits, employees with complex remuneration packages and/ or valuable benefits, and cases involving the potential for longer-term loss. They also consider how employers may need to adapt their settlement strategies, strengthen dismissal processes, and take a more proactive approach to mitigation evidence in higher-value claims. With practical insights on recruitment, performance management, contractual protections and settlement strategy, this episode offers timely and practical guidance for employers preparing for the changing unfair dismissal landscape.
