Employment Issues
Employment related issues now account for nearly 10% of the issues dealt with annually by Citizens Advice bureaux in Northern Ireland and is the third largest area of enquiry after benefits and debt. It is an area that is currently experiencing significant growth in the number of people seeking advice as the impact of the economic downturn takes hold.
To help identify major areas of concern and recommend policies to address these issues Citizens Advice has produced a policy report entitled In The Dark. A summary of the report, which was launched at Stormont on the 2nd December 2008, is available below.
In addition, Citizens Advice has published a comprehensive range of fact sheets covering all of the main areas of basic employment law. The Statutory Employment Rights fact sheet is available in a number of non-English languages.
