Unfair Dismissal? 21 days to Lodge Your Claim

An unfair dismissal claim must be lodged with the Fair Work Commission within 21 days after the dismissal takes effect. If your claim is not filed within 21 days, then you generally cannot proceed with your claim. To be eligible for an unfair dismissal claim:

  1. You must be an employee;
  2. You must satisfy the Dismissal Test, the Income Test, and the Minimum Service Test; and
  3. Your dismissal cannot be a genuine redundancy.

Contact Shoalhaven Lawyers to ensure that you lodge your claim within 21 days.
