Long-Term Absence Dismissal

We helped a client to dismiss an employee who had been on long-term sick leave for over three years.

Situation

The client came to us after struggling to manage the absence and asked for guidance on how to proceed with a lawful dismissal.

Solution

We worked closely with the client to ensure compliance with employment law, providing expert advice on obtaining the necessary medical evidence and occupational health reports and the process to follow.  We guided the client through every step of the process, ensuring that the dismissal was fair, well-documented, and legally sound, minimising the risk of any future claims.

Outcome

The client successfully terminated the employee’s contract, avoiding a potential legal dispute whilst ensuring that the process was handled with care and respect for all parties involved.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Taurus HR Solutions for all your HR needs. They provided a personal and professional service that ensures peace of mind in the workplace. I am grateful for their dedicated service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an HR firm they can trust.
