Some examples of non-contractual grounds for a constructive dismissal claim could be:
- Your employer has failed to take reasonable steps to prevent colleagues or managers harassing or bullying you
- Your employer has made unreasonable changes to your working conditions, such as changing your place of work to somewhere completely unattainable
- Your employer has failed to support you to perform your role. For example, they may have refused to provide you with adequate training, or even neglected to train you at all
- Your employer has failed to make your working conditions safe in compliance with Health and Safety regulations
- The trust and confidence in the employment relationship has fundamentally broken down.
It’s important to note that if you raise any of the above issues, whether contractual or non-contractual, and your employer ignores to resolve these issues and continues to neglect your contractual rights (to the point where you feel all you can do is resign), you may be eligible to bring a constructive dismissal claim.
