Could you defend an ET claim a year from now?
The Employment Tribunal Readiness Check for employers and HR teams.
A claim can reach you long after the decision behind it. By then, managers may have left, messages may have disappeared and the reasons for a decision may be harder to reconstruct.
Our free 5-minute self-assessment helps you check whether your organisation could retrieve the evidence and explain what happened.
Check the parts of your process that matter later
Work through 12 practical questions covering:
- Records and evidence: can you find the documents and preserve them when a dispute becomes likely?
- Manager decision-making: are the reasons recorded and stored somewhere accessible?
- Witnesses and leavers: do you know who could help and how to contact them appropriately?
- Dispute management: are risks escalated, chronologies created and conciliation used purposefully?
You’ll receive a score out of 24 and an action checklist to help you identify gaps. You don’t need to upload employee information or the details of a live dispute to complete the assessment.

The assessment is a practical preparation tool, not legal advice or a prediction of how a claim would be decided.
Our tribunal track record
Over seven years, not a single Halborns client has paid compensation at tribunal.
Strong outcomes start long before the hearing. We assess the case early, preserve the evidence, keep the commercial strategy under review and prepare thoroughly for every stage.
No one can promise how a tribunal will decide a claim. What we can promise is clear advice, proactive case management and a strategy centred on the outcome that matters to your organisation.
