Employment tribunals have a dizzying array of remedy powers, built on a web of complex statutory jurisdictions, allowing in many cases uncapped compensation, to say nothing of their other more idiosyncratic non-financial remedies such as recommendations and orders for reinstatement and re-engagement. A comprehensive analysis would be impossible in a paper such as this, so I intend to focus here on tribunal claims for compensation based on injuries sustained by employees, both to their feelings and to their health, and some practical and legal issues connected such claims which have been thrown up by recent cases. In the course of doing so I will also return to some familiar principles.
