Why is the law in favour of the employer?

Posted by 70sfamily | 10:05:00 PM


My Dad is currently taking his previous employers to employment tribunal, on the grounds of unfair dismissal. His loss of earnings amounts to 1.5 x a £28,000 p.a. salary. It is probable that he will win the case on the basis that he has written evidence that his employer unfairly dismissed him. However, he has been told by his solicitor that he will not get more than £20,000 in compensation. I don't understand how this can be fair, and the law can be so in favour of the employer, when it is clear that his dismissal was an unjust. He has been out of work for a year and has only recently found a new job, from which he has earned about £500 this month, so the tribunal can hardly account for these earnings. Could anyone shed some light on this issue please?
