In a recent article, we broadly addressed the relevant effects of the new Code of Good Practice Dismissal (“the new code”) and the ways in which it amends, and in many instances, improves upon, the legal approach to dismissals adopted by the previous version of the new code and the Code of Good Practice on Operational Requirements (collectively “the previous codes”). In this article, we will be focusing on the specific effects of the new code on small business, and the methods employed to lessen the administrative and legal obstacles historically faced by small enterprises when faced with dismissal-related issues in the workplace.
