Help Resolving Disputes

Acas' extensive knowledge and experience comes from our day-to-day work with managers, HR professionals, employees and their representatives in workplaces of every shape and size.

Our national and regional advisers use this experience to help organisations to solve problems when things go wrong.

We offer an independent and trusted service for dealing with disputes between groups of workers, their representatives and their employers. We also deal with disputes where individuals claim their employer has denied them a legal right.

This section explains the range of ways Acas can help resolve problems in the workplace.

What does Acas do when there is a dispute between workers and an employer in the workplace? - Acas' Chief Conciliator Peter Harwood talks about the service.
