Join us for an interactive Mock Employment Tribunal at Weetwood Hall to examine the dismissal of an employee following controversial social media posts. The case explores the tension between an individual’s right to express their views and an employer’s duty to protect its reputation and maintain workplace standards. As the disciplinary process unfolds, disputes arise over procedural fairness, the employer’s investigation, and whether the dismissal was fair.
Through witness evidence, cross-examination, and legal submissions from real barristers, attendees will gain practical insight into Tribunal procedure and the practical application of unfair dismissal principles, including conducting disciplinary investigations and hearings, freedom of expression, social media conduct, and the consequences of failing to follow a fair process.
