Employers face the prospect of a hire going wrong when they take a chance or a risk, and of an employee being able to turn up in the morning on day one and before lunch file a claim with the employment tribunal that puts their business at the back of a two-year long queue behind 491,000 open claims. It is staggering that we have been talking about this Bill when the queue for the tribunal in many parts of the country stretches out for two years. That is incredibly expensive, and justice deferred is justice for nobody. Why not focus much more of our endeavours on trying to fix that issue?
