Overview

You will need to comply with this code if you operate a small business. A small business is defined as any business with fewer than 15 employees - this refers to the number of individuals, not the full-time equivalent number.

This code provides protection against unfair dismissal claims, where an employer follows the code. A dismissal will be fair if the employer follows the code and can provide evidence of this.
