Changes to Acas Early Conciliation Form

19 January 2015

Acas has revised its Early Conciliation notification form (both online and hard copy versions).

With thanks to Daniel Barnett for the alert, the changes are:

• a new field so the Claimant can include contact details of their representative (if s/he has one). If the Claimant gives details of a representative, Acas will contact the representative directly.
• the employer address lookup facility has been removed, as it was proving difficult for Claimants to give the correct legal identity of their employer. So Claimants now have to input the correct address manually.

Further information on Early Conciliation is available on the Acas website.
