Employment rights

Without prejudice

A label on letters, emails or conversations made to try to settle a dispute, so that what's said generally can't be used as evidence in court if the talks fail.

A plain-English explanation of how this usually works in the UK, not legal advice. Rules change, so check your own situation. For free, impartial advice on work rights, try Acas. Disclaimer.
