The list of issues: UK Employment Tribunal process, representing yourself 

Congratulations on winning the case! It’s very inspiring to hear that you can win even if you can’t afford a lawyer. Most people give up before even trying so well done!

What a fabulous concise and clear delivery that was and very warm too. Bravo thank you

This video has been a great help! 😊

Thank you! This was so helpful!

Well done on your win. Also we have filled out the ET-1 form with the claim but it was dont incorrectly but it was still accepted by the tribunual. Of course the repondants law firm pointed out the issues which has done us a favour. We have the pre hearing over the phone on the 6th june so time to submit an application to ammend clam and get things right at the early stage. My friend does not have a legal reprsentative as her union let her down so we are doing this ourselves so far. Hence why the need to binge watch your content and others to get a good undersanding of things.

Thanks for the tips really need them right now no solicitor really stressed on medication due to all this so this video gives me a bit of confidence about arguing my case. I will be good at that as I'm a supervisor trying to do his best.

Thank you

I am waiting for acas outcome... and I don't know if I have courage to go to the Tribunal... but let's see... I am missing holiday pay, two weeks wages and notice pay plus got few false allegations.

I found your RU-vid videos a great help. I'm representing myself. I'm at 2nd Pre hearing stage to discuss the agreement to settle out of court on January 28th. The pre hearing to discuss this, is on January 16th. My question should I add one small but significant incident to my ET1 form and copy to Tribunal office and respondents legal? Or should I wait till after the PH then send b4 28th? I prefer to send now to save the hassle or confusion layer. Thank you so much

Thanks for a very helpful video. Is it possible to take an employer to tribunal for discrimination when the employee was treated differently (very badly) to other staff members, because they chose not to have a vaccination for example? They were also treated differently to other staff members who also weren't vaccinated. Many thanks.

Any idea if tribunal offer any compensation for deductions of wages? Holiday pay. Responded only paying the unpaid wages. Thanks

Hi, your videos have been a massive help, I don’t think I would have come this far without them. I have my PH next month and the respondent has breached a case management order deadline date. I’ve email the court to have their ET3 struck out in the middle of us exchanging documents. Do I need to wait for a reply from the tribunal regards next steps before I re-engage with the document sharing? Also, do you know if you’re allowed to change your Remedy? Any help would be massively appreciated. Thank you x

In the remedy section is it okay to write questions? Do you have any written advice or recommend any written advice around doing the et1 form for discrimination cases? Is it okay for me to just do a claim for injury to feelings? This resulted in me resigning because I felt so distressed and humiliated but I didn't go through a grievance procedure because I didn't want to have to do more meetings and they said the grievance procedure couldn't be done all in writing. I'm not sure if I have strong case for constructive unfair dismissal so was thinking of just claiming for injury to feelings. I am doing a claim against my employer which involves different from managers, is it okay to do the claim against the employing organization and name the different mangers involved within the claim that discriminated against me? Is it better to find a representative to do the et1 or do it yourself?

I am representing myself and currently preparing the list of issues in readiness for the preliminary hearing (23 November). Do I have to head each issue strictly i.e. as direct, indirect discrimination (I am floundering on this point) and then describe what they are because I am unsure if they are actually direct or indirect, or ...arising from. Disability discrimination is so complex. If I do not get these headings correct, will the judge not consider them? Further, what if I have missed a couple of things off my iniitial ET1 but have subsequently realised they should appear - e.g. flexible working request, vitimisation etc. Apologies for disjointed message. Regards Lynne

Did you have to make any order? What about struck out? How do I reply to ET with those matters in case arise? Is there a particular form/format letter replying to ET about these. Thank you ever so much x

I’m have a question please . I have a date for the 2nd preliminary hearing and prior to that , I need to send in of x3 folders of any documents of my evidence case and I’m the claimant. I was not told of if I need to reprint the actual court sent letters to me and add to my evidence pile ?

This is a torpedo…thank you…I submitted my ET1 last September and I’m yet to hear back from court. how do I chase it?

I had my prelim about 3 weeks ago. Set for a 4 day hearing in October!

Thanks so much very nervous about the whole procedure,So if we know a contract was not signed by myself,But Employer saying I did and gave me a handbook ,Which they did not how does the judge look on this as I know I did not sign but they are bringing to court saying I did ?Thanks for all your help need it.

So we have to make contact with the respondants solicitors to agree on things as we have an ACAS conciliator?

Hi , i hope i can contact you for advice, I‘m in a complete mess over my case. I know I should be able to do this, but it‘s not easy when I have to read all the paperwork and relive the situation again and again.

I didnt write my list of issues correctly. I only did them right after seeing your video. The solicitors has now offered me a small sum to close the case but had stated they believe they would win the case. They also stated that i am way out of time to change my list of issues that i submitted. I have a prelim hearing in September 7

My former employer claims I was self employed and this is why I wasn't entitled to sick pay or holiday pay for the last two weeks of my shifts. Thing is, I am not nor have I ever been self employed. Now I have 8 years of unpaid taxes and insurances. His business is going into insolvency but I need more advice on legal aid and how I would prove it when he hasn't provided me with any p45 or so on

I’m currently putting together my list of issues but have realised that I have described and event but have not labelled it as “victimisation.” Would I still be able to put this on my list or do I need to apply to The Tribunal to amend my claim? Thanks

Do I make a list of issues myself on the case management or does this happen during the preliminary hearing?

Hi im stuck with working out what the legal claims are. Any pointers please?.

I have a PH in a few weeks and still trying to get my head around understanding the list of issues. It's disability, race and sex discrimination. Probably doesn't help that all this is so vague and I'm neurodivergent. I know you probably get a lot of people contacting you for help but if possible if I can understand it more in depth (list of issues) then I should be able to do it. Help

When I got dismissed, they took my phone and laptop so I have little to no evidence. However my dismissal was unfair as I was a top performer beginning of the year and then in October got dismissed with no warning, the only meeting we had was one 2 weeks before the dismissal where the CEO made completely inappropriate comments (condoms, ex boyfriends) etc. What do I do?

How did you find out that you can send a separate list of issues. The respondent is refusing to give me the witness statements. Their excuse for that is that we (they!) cant agree a list of issues. I have applied for a strike out under rule 37 but would like to be able to reference when I put my argument forward. Thank you! X

Hi, can I get in touch with you directly?

is there an email address I contact with questions?

You are a star, your videos gave guided me through the right path..and you are cute

Hi the ET-1 form does not have a list of issues category or am I missing something? Also where does it mention also putting in the legal claims?. Am I missing sonmething sorry. IM CONFUSED. assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/994536/et1-eng.pdf
