What price justice for poor workers? TUC document

The Government's announcement in mid December that it intends to charge workers a fee to take claims to employment tribunals was condemned by the TUC.

'Employment tribunals are a key way of enabling workers to enforce their rights,' said TUC general secretary Brendan Barber. 'Government proposals to introduce a fee to lodge an initial claim - and then possibly a further charge for a full hearing - will effectively prevent the poorest and most vulnerable workers from ever being able to get justice.'
