ACAS Early Conciliation: How It Works for Settlement Agreements and Redundancy Disputes

If you are considering an employment tribunal claim or have been told your role is at risk of redundancy, acas early conciliation is the mandatory first step to try and resolve your workplace dispute without going to court. The process is free, confidential, and pauses your tribunal time limits—giving you valuable time to explore a fair settlement or even secure a formal settlement agreement. If you receive a settlement agreement offer during these discussions, the law requires that you obtain independent legal advice before the agreement is valid, and your employer almost always pays for our solicitor’s advice and certification.

Signing a settlement agreement usually means permanently giving up your right to bring claims, so it’s essential to ensure any offer is fair, tax-efficient, and genuinely in your best interest. Our solicitors can explain your rights around redundancy pay and compensation, check for key legal risks, and help negotiate better terms—all at no cost to you.

In this detailed guide, you’ll learn how acas early conciliation works step by step, what timelines apply, how the process impacts tribunal deadlines and redundancy cases, and practical tips to protect your future. For expert advice today, call our solicitors on 0800 054 1144 or book your settlement agreement advice online.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Before starting ACAS early conciliation, gather all relevant paperwork: your contract, redundancy consultation documents, dismissal or grievance letters, pay records, and any emails relating to your dispute. Proper evidence strengthens your negotiating position and speeds up the process.

What is ACAS early conciliation and why is it required before an employment tribunal claim?

ACAS early conciliation is a process in which the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) helps employees and employers resolve workplace disputes without proceeding straight to an employment tribunal. Since 2014, it has been a statutory requirement for almost all employment claims in England and Wales that individuals must notify ACAS and consider conciliation before submitting a tribunal claim. This covers issues such as redundancy, unfair dismissal, discrimination, unpaid wages, and more.

The process offers a swift, cost-free, and confidential way for both sides to try to resolve matters early. ACAS conciliation officers act as neutral mediators, clarifying the legal position and relaying settlement offers, but they do not represent either party. Any agreement reached is legally valid and enforceable.

Employees must start ACAS early conciliation before progressing a claim, except in certain rare situations, such as specific collective disputes or limited exemptions. Once complete—whether agreement is reached or not—ACAS issues a certificate you need to submit a tribunal form.

📘 For Example: A client facing redundancy initiated ACAS early conciliation and, with our help, agreed a settlement including an additional exit payment and a positive reference, avoiding the stress and delay of a tribunal.

Step-by-step ACAS early conciliation process: what employees need to know

The ACAS early conciliation process gives both employees and employers the opportunity to resolve their dispute in a fair and timely way. Here’s how it typically works:

  1. Notification: Submit an early conciliation notification form online or phone ACAS with your details and those of your employer.
  2. ACAS Contact: A conciliator phones you—usually within two working days—to discuss your case and whether you want to proceed.
  3. Conciliation Period: If you proceed, ACAS contacts your employer and manages negotiations, remaining neutral and not offering legal advice.
  4. Conclusion: If you reach agreement, terms are put in writing (COT3 or settlement agreement). If not, ACAS provides a certificate so you can submit a tribunal claim.

Keep detailed records of all communications. In redundancy cases, employers might offer enhanced payments via a settlement agreement alongside, or instead of, statutory redundancy pay.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Use the employer’s name exactly as shown on your payslip or contract when notifying ACAS. Mistakes here can lead to problems with your certificate and tribunal claim.

How to start ACAS early conciliation

To start acas early conciliation:

You’ll need your contact details, your employer’s legal name and address, and a short description of your dispute. This initiates “Day A” and pauses your tribunal deadlines.

Before you begin, gather evidence like redundancy consultation notes, selection criteria, contract documents, and all relevant correspondence.

📘 For Example: A retail employee challenged their redundancy selection after emailing supporting evidence to ACAS during conciliation. This resulted in a significantly increased redundancy payment and an improved reference as part of the final deal.

What to expect during the conciliation period

An ACAS conciliator will speak with you to clarify your goals. They then contact your employer to explore settlement options. All communication is off the record and confidential. Conciliation can result in:

  • Improved redundancy or exit terms
  • Adjusted leaving dates
  • Removal of negative references
  • Other creative solutions (e.g., retraining support or garden leave)

The process typically lasts up to six weeks but ends earlier if agreement is reached or either party opts out.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Let your conciliator and solicitor know upfront if you are close to your tribunal time limit. Fast-tracking is possible if needed for urgent cases.

Early conciliation outcomes: agreement or certificate

Outcomes are either:

  • COT3 agreement: An ACAS-drafted agreement confirming settlement terms.
  • Settlement agreement: A tailored agreement (usually during redundancy/mutual exit), requiring your own solicitor’s advice and signature to be legally binding.
  • No agreement: If you don’t settle, ACAS issues a certificate allowing you to proceed to tribunal.

If you intend to claim, keep your certificate reference safe as it is required for tribunal submissions.

📘 For Example: A manager secured an extra ex gratia payment and positive reference in a COT3, then used their certificate to launch a tribunal for a separate, unresolved discrimination complaint.

How does ACAS early conciliation affect tribunal claims and time limits?

Engaging in ACAS early conciliation stops the clock on strict tribunal claim deadlines—usually three months less one day after your employment ends or the issue happened. The period from your notification (“Day A”) to receiving the certificate (“Day B”) is excluded from your deadline.

After the certificate is issued, you will have at least one calendar month, or the remainder of your original deadline if longer, to lodge your tribunal claim.

If in doubt about your deadline, our solicitors can check your paperwork and ensure you stay within time limits. For urgent advice or a same-day remote appointment, call 0800 054 1144 or book your settlement agreement advice online.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Miscalculating tribunal time limits is a major cause of claims being rejected. Always keep a record of your notification date (“Day A”) and certificate date (“Day B”).

Settlement agreements during ACAS early conciliation: how does it work?

Settlement agreements are frequently used to resolve disputes during or after ACAS early conciliation. In many redundancy cases and mutual exits, employers offer a formal settlement agreement to secure finality and ensure all claims are waived. These agreements must be reviewed and signed off by an independent solicitor for you to receive full legal protection, as set out in s.203 Employment Rights Act 1996.

Employers normally pay for your legal advice. Once signed, you waive all claims set out in the agreement, such as redundancy, unfair dismissal, or discrimination.

📘 For Example: An employee negotiated an enhanced redundancy exit with a positive reference, tax-free settlement, and additional payment for waiving potential discrimination claims—all with legal advice funded by the employer.

Reaching a settlement agreement through ACAS

A settlement agreement can be proposed during early conciliation in addition to, or instead of, a COT3. Settlement agreements are more detailed and allow for tailored clauses such as positive references, confidentiality, future restrictions, and specific tax arrangements.

You and your adviser can negotiate the terms directly with your employer or through ACAS. The agreement will outline the financial sum, post-employment restrictions, confidentiality terms, and any other agreed points.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Always request a draft settlement agreement before agreeing to any terms. This allows your solicitor to review critical clauses—such as confidentiality, reference wording, and tax treatment—so you don’t lose out.

Why independent legal advice is mandatory (s.203 ERA 1996)

The law requires that every employee signing a settlement agreement must receive independent legal advice from a qualified adviser. This protects you from waiving legal rights unknowingly and ensures the agreement is enforceable.

Our solicitors explain:

  • Which claims you are waiving
  • Future tax liabilities and payment breakdowns
  • Any ongoing restrictions (e.g., non-compete clauses)
  • Your right to challenge terms if required

This advice is paid for by your employer, and you should not sign until you fully understand every clause.

📘 For Example: A client uncertain about post-employment restrictions had our solicitor amend their draft settlement agreement, ensuring restrictive covenants were narrowed and only legitimate claims were waived.

Employer-funded legal advice: what does it cover?

Almost all employers pay for employee legal advice on a settlement agreement. This ensures you receive a full review, explanation of each term, advice on negotiations, and confirmation of tax and redundancy entitlements—all at no cost to you.

Our solicitors commonly negotiate higher employer contributions if the case is complex or the draft agreement requires significant changes.

💡 Lawyer Tip: If the original employer contribution does not cover all legal work needed, ask your employer to increase it. Employers will usually agree if they want the process completed smoothly and swiftly.

Is the financial offer in an ACAS settlement agreement fair?

Determining fairness depends on your claim’s value and the circumstances. ACAS early conciliation settlements often match (or beat) what a tribunal might award, especially once legal risks and costs are considered. Use a Settlement Agreement Calculator or Redundancy Calculator to check your entitlement.

Fair offers typically include:

  • Statutory redundancy pay
  • Notice pay
  • Holiday pay
  • Ex gratia payment (often tax-free up to £30,000)
  • Employer contribution to legal fees

Enhanced packages may be achieved through effective negotiation if there are weaknesses in the employer’s process.

📘 For Example: An engineer facing redundancy received the statutory minimum initially but, after highlighting a lack of consultation, negotiated an uplifted payment and a positive reference through early conciliation.

Typical compensation via ACAS early conciliation

ACAS settlements usually cover statutory (or contractual) redundancy, notice, accrued holiday, and an ex gratia payment. The financial split depends on claim strength, length of service, and the risks both parties face at tribunal. Employers may pay a premium to resolve claims early.

Breakdown details can be found using our Employment Tribunal Compensation Estimator.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Always request a detailed financial breakdown before accepting an offer. Compare this against your likely tribunal entitlement, factoring in tax and your length of service.

Redundancy pay, notice periods, and negotiating for more

Statutory redundancy pay applies if you have at least two years’ service. It’s based on age, length of service, and weekly pay (up to the statutory cap). Notice must be worked or paid in lieu, and all accrued holiday should be paid on exit.

You may negotiate more if:

  • Your redundancy process was poorly handled
  • You have evidence of discrimination or unfair selection
  • The employer wants a swift or confidential resolution

Our solicitors can help you understand redundancy rights and negotiations.

📘 For Example: A client in a small redundancy pool negotiated extra redundancy pay and leaver benefits after querying selection criteria and seeking solicitor input early in the ACAS process.

Ex gratia payments: how to check what’s reasonable

Ex gratia sums are discretionary, usually offered for waiving legal claims. Payments are typically tax-free up to £30,000, provided they are not owed under contract or for work done. A fair figure is based on the strength of your case, expected tribunal awards, and negotiation leverage.

Refer to ACAS guidance on settlement agreements to learn more about reasonable ex gratia payments.

Payment Type Contractual/Statutory Tax-Free Up to £30,000? Negotiable?
Redundancy Pay Statutory or Contractual Yes (usually) Sometimes
Notice Pay (PENP) Contractual No Rarely
Holiday Pay Statutory No Sometimes
Ex Gratia Voluntary Yes (up to £30,000) Yes
💡 Lawyer Tip: Review your ex gratia sum against the strength of your claims, length of service, and legal risk. Use online tools or government calculators for benchmarks and seek advice before accepting any offer.

Tax on settlement agreements: what is tax-free, and what is not?

Settlement agreement payments are split for tax purposes. Statutory redundancy pay, voluntary redundancy, and ex gratia sums can be tax-free up to £30,000 if they meet HMRC criteria (government guidance on termination payments). Notice pay, holiday pay, and unpaid salary are always taxable.

The agreement should clearly set out each element—errors can result in underpaid tax and future HMRC challenges.

📘 For Example: A client’s settlement agreement was redrafted to clarify which sums were tax-free, with contractually owed notice and holiday pay shown as taxable, protecting both parties from compliance issues.

The £30,000 tax-free rule and ex gratia elements

HMRC allows qualifying ex gratia payments and statutory redundancy pay to be tax-free up to £30,000. Over that threshold, or for contractual sums like notice pay, normal income tax applies. Proper wording in your agreement determines tax treatment.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Ask your solicitor to double-check the payment splits in your agreement to avoid HMRC reclassifying a tax-free sum as taxable earnings.

Payment in lieu of notice (PENP) and tax treatment

Any payment in lieu of notice (PENP) is fully taxable, under HMRC’s post-2018 rules, regardless of your contract’s provisions. Ensure your agreement clarifies how much is being paid for unworked notice and that this is fully taxed.

📘 For Example: A departing manager had their settlement agreement updated so payroll and tax on notice pay matched HMRC’s calculation, preventing future underpayment or disputes.

Common tax risks and liabilities to check

Settlement agreements usually require you to indemnify your employer for future tax liabilities. This means you could be responsible if HMRC later disagrees with the allocation of taxable and tax-free sums. Your solicitor should help clarify and minimise exposure.

Refer to HMRC’s termination payment guidance for the latest official rules.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Do not assume your employer’s draft is correct—many contain unclear or risky tax clauses. Get your agreement checked before signing to avoid expensive mistakes.

For advice on tax, redundancy, or payments in your settlement agreement, call 0800 054 1144 or book your settlement agreement advice online. Our expertise is free for employees, as the employer covers our fees.

Key risks in a settlement agreement: clauses to review carefully

Settlement agreements are binding. Employees should pay close attention to:

  • Restrictive covenants (non-compete, non-solicit)
  • Confidentiality obligations
  • References and reputation clauses
  • Tax indemnities
  • Waiver and warranty clauses

Our solicitors review these clauses to ensure you do not inadvertently give up future rights, become liable for tax, or restrict your career options.

📘 For Example: Our solicitors successfully amended a client’s draft agreement to narrow restrictive covenants and guarantee an agreed reference—making the exit fair and future-proof.

Restrictive covenants and post-employment restrictions

Check whether any restrictive covenants are reasonable in length and geographic scope. Over-broad covenants can be unenforceable, but even unenforceable ones may deter future job opportunities. Always challenge any restrictions that go beyond legitimate business protection.

💡 Lawyer Tip: If you have a job offer elsewhere or plan to join a competitor, disclose this for specific solicitor advice so your new role is not restricted by post-exit clauses.

Confidentiality, references, and reputation clauses

Most agreements require confidentiality regarding terms and circumstances of settlement. Also, reference clauses should ideally include pre-agreed wording. Insist on positive reference provisions protecting your reputation and barring negative statements.

📘 For Example: A departing employee secured a specifically-worded agreed reference alongside a confidentiality clause, letting them move on with no career detriment.

Tax indemnities and waiver of claims: what’s at stake

Tax indemnities can make you liable for any future HMRC reclassification. Waiver clauses set out the claims you are giving up; these need to be defined and limited appropriately, especially concerning future rights or issues you could not have known about.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Ask for the waiver to exclude future personal injury or pension claims unless these have genuinely been considered and compensated for.

How to sign and complete your ACAS settlement agreement: step by step

Settlement agreements can be completed fully remotely, often on the same day. The steps are:

  1. Receive the draft agreement from your employer.
  2. Book a remote call with our solicitors.
  3. Our solicitor explains each clause, proposes changes, and negotiates if required.
  4. Once final, sign electronically or on paper.
  5. Our solicitor certifies your legal advice (adviser certificate).
  6. Send the signed versions to the employer.
  7. Employer makes agreed payment(s) on the specified timeline.

Most employers pay our solicitor directly—there’s usually nothing for you to pay.

📘 For Example: A client with an urgent deadline completed their advice review and electronic signing within 90 minutes, releasing their redundancy lump sum for the next payroll run.

Remote and same-day signing process

Our firm provides same-day, fully remote settlement agreement advice and signing. Simply book online, send your draft, and arrange a phone or video appointment for comprehensive advice. This is ideal for urgent deadlines or tight payroll windows.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Never sign or resign before your agreement has been legally checked. Early resignation may reduce your leverage or affect your settlement—our solicitors act swiftly to protect your rights.

Legal certificate and employer payment for advice

Every valid settlement agreement needs a legal adviser’s certificate, signed by your solicitor. Our solicitors provide this immediately after review. The employer pays our fee direct (or via you), covering review and basic negotiation or amendments. Extra legal work is often funded by requesting an increased employer contribution.

📘 For Example: When a client required additional negotiations, we secured a higher fee contribution from the employer, allowing for a thorough review and prompt execution.

What happens next after you sign

On signing, your employer processes settlement payments per the agreement—usually in the next payroll. Keep a copy of all paperwork (agreement, legal adviser certificate, P45, and reference). Chase HR immediately if there are any delays or discrepancies.

If an employer fails to pay or breaches the terms, you have a legally binding contract you can enforce through the courts.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Double-check the payment schedule in your settlement agreement, and set diary reminders. Follow up with HR or payroll if the payment has not been made as agreed.

Frequently Asked Questions About ACAS early conciliation

Is ACAS early conciliation compulsory before a tribunal claim?

Yes. Nearly all tribunal claims require you to complete ACAS early conciliation first. If you don’t include the certificate with your tribunal form, your claim will be rejected unless a rare formal exemption applies. Start the process as soon as possible to protect your deadlines.

💡 Lawyer Tip: Notify ACAS even if you doubt settlement is possible. This preserves your tribunal rights and pauses your legal time limits.

What happens if early conciliation is unsuccessful?

If settlement isn’t reached during conciliation, ACAS issues a certificate enabling you to proceed to a tribunal. You have at least a month or the rest of your original time limit (whichever is longer) to submit your claim. Save this certificate carefully to avoid unnecessary problems.

📘 For Example: A client, unable to agree terms, filed an unfair dismissal claim using their early conciliation certificate, preserving their ability to claim compensation.

How long does ACAS early conciliation take?

The process can last up to six weeks but often resolves much sooner if both parties are engaged. If urgent, you can ask ACAS to issue a certificate immediately, particularly if tribunal deadlines are near.

💡 Lawyer Tip: If running out of time, tell ACAS or your solicitor. A certificate can be expedited in emergencies to ensure your tribunal claim is not time-barred.

Can I get a settlement agreement during ACAS early conciliation?

Yes. Settlement agreements are regularly used to resolve disputes early, often providing enhanced terms, certainty, and confidentiality for both sides compared to a tribunal.

📘 For Example: Our solicitor helped a redundant ex-employee secure a settlement agreement including extra pay and positive references, signed before the conciliation period ended.

Who pays for legal advice on a settlement agreement?

Your employer almost always pays for your independent legal advice as part of the settlement. Our solicitors review your agreement, explain every clause, and certify the deal, all usually at no cost to you.

💡 Lawyer Tip: If your situation is complex and needs further advice or negotiation, seek an increased contribution—employers usually agree for the sake of a smooth process.

How does early conciliation affect my redundancy case?

ACAS early conciliation lets you negotiate redundancy selection, pay, references, and terms confidentially—without tribunal stress or cost. It preserves your rights and often results in a better financial outcome than statutory minimums.

📘 For Example: A client secured increased redundancy pay and a leaver reference by flagging flaws in the selection process during early conciliation.

What should I prepare before starting early conciliation?

Prepare your contract, redundancy or dismissal letters, payslips, appraisals, grievances, and any evidence of unfair selection or discrimination. Well-organised evidence supports stronger negotiation and can speed resolution.

💡 Lawyer Tip: List key dates and events before starting conciliation. Having a chronology helps your solicitor and ACAS conciliate effectively.

What should be included in an ACAS settlement agreement?

A good settlement agreement will specify financial payments (redundancy, notice, ex gratia), agreed reference wording, confidentiality requirements, restriction details, claim waivers, and tax treatment. Your solicitor should check every term for fairness and clarity.

📘 For Example: A client’s agreement, reviewed by our team, detailed all payments, protected their reputation, and confirmed confidentiality terms—delivering a speedy, risk-free exit.

I had a client who didn’t pay us for three invoices, and we ended up in court. The court’s instructions and communication were terrible, it was too expensive for us to hire a lawyer, and navigating the paperwork was almost impossible. After weeks of frustration, costs, and stress, and after talking to over 20 law firms, we met Karim. He offered a much more affordable and simpler solution, and thanks to him, we won the court case.

Knowledge is Power...

Happy to provide a review….this project has emanated from a foundation of passion rather than from a corporate /business orientation. Given the right financial support and human endeavour, it will emerge as a leading legal platform to support, provide and respond to those in desperate need.
The objectives Karim and his team have set out to achieve is commendable.

How to DIY a complaint against estate agents...

The lawyer advised me how to deal with my complaint myself as it is too small for GoLegal. Very useful but could have been a little slower paced so l coud have taken better notes. But very clear and helpful, thank you..

Reasonable, fair and trustworthy

They’ve been helping me with many cases and have always been reasonable and fair and acting in my best interests. I used many lawyers before including well known names and they all either scammed me or were negligent. These guys have saved me on more than one occasion and I recommend them without reservations

Excellent London Solicitors

Good, sound advice with a relatively speedy turnaround without burning a hole in the pocket. We needed a client agreement drafted at short notice with an Addendum that sat on top. Karim understood our requirements and provided expect legal guidance to achieve our objectives as economically as possible.

Would definitely recommend and use again.

Terms & Conditions in no time!

I recently used Go Legal’s platform to create business terms and conditions, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The process was incredibly quick and accurate—I had a fully tailored document in no time. What I loved most was how user-friendly the platform is.
The terms & conditions for my business are spot-on and professionally drafted. I felt confident that my business was covered without any unnecessary jargon. Plus, the whole experience felt accessible, with helpful guidance along the way. Highly recommend Go Legal for anyone looking to get quality legal docs in a fast and a lot cheaper way!

As a startup, it’s crucial to have the right people representing you, and Karim has been a great help in setting up contracts.

Sole parental responsibility ground...

My stepson’s visa application was refused on sole parental responsibility ground and he is turning 18 so we decided to seek help from a professional lawyer and not to risk to apply again by ourselves because it was a critical condition. We worked with Mrs. Zareen Akhtar, a solicitor of the company, and she did her best to achieve a positive result. Fortunately, despite a previous refusal, after just three weeks his second application was successful. Zareen is a perfect professional lawyer and I definitely recommend her to anyone who has a law issue.

I utilised Go-Legal and can only rate Karim and his team as been exceptional.

Karim provided proper costings for our work which involved obtaining an Adjudication enforcement and winding up order against Apollo Builders Group Ltd director Syed Atif Ali.

Karim’s team were very successful and won all court cases. The company is now wound up.

Karim communicated well put in a plan to solve our legal issues and worked hard when our opponent attempted a number of deceitful acts to ruin proceedings.

I would advise going to go legal first before using other teams.

Exceptional work from Karim!

Karim went above and beyond to help us settle a debt dispute with a UK company that hadn’t paid us. As an international business, Karim was tremendously helpful and available to us throughout the process, even with time zone differences across our offices.

Highly Recommended Karim at Go Legal Ai

After months of struggling with a rather shady company and getting nowhere, I was recommended to speak with Karim at Go Legal. He was incredibly reassuring, listened to my complaint attentively, and clearly presented my options. Within a few weeks of negotiations with the opposing lawyer, Karim was able to secure a fantastic settlement for me. I was over the moon! He is calm, reassuring, and responsive. I highly recommend Karim at Go Legal to anyone in need of a good lawyer.

First Solicitor Firm I feel I can trust

For the first time in the last 7 years I spoke to a professional who WAS LISTENING to me so to best understand – in the short time available – what is going on and why I need to take my ex-solicitor to court.
It would feel right to have GoLegal help me with the professional negligence case, if time limitations allow to do so. Pity I did not speak to this Firm, months ago. Wow, they know what they are doing…
Conversation ended on such a positive note, thank you K. from GoLegal, thank you very much.

I am delighted to share my heartfelt gratitude and utmost appreciation for Zareen, the immigration consultant who expertly guided us through the British naturalisation process for my wife and two kids. From start to finish, Zareen’s exceptional service and unwavering confidence made an enormous difference in our journey.

Zareen’s expertise and professionalism were evident from our very first meeting. She thoroughly understood the complexities of our case and approached each challenge with a calm and positive demeanor. Her extensive knowledge of the naturalisation process and her ability to anticipate and address potential issues reassured us every step of the way.

What truly set Zareen apart was her constant communication and feedback. She kept us informed about the progress of our application, providing timely updates and constructive insights that helped us stay on track. Her positive attitude and encouraging words were a source of comfort, especially during moments of uncertainty.

Zareen’s dedication and meticulous attention to detail ensured that all our documentation was accurate and complete. Her proactive approach in preparing and submitting our application demonstrated her commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for our family.

Thanks to Zareen’s exceptional guidance, we successfully obtained British naturalisation for my wife and two kids. Her professionalism, confidence, and unwavering support made an otherwise daunting process smooth and stress-free. I wholeheartedly recommend Zareen to anyone seeking an immigration consultant who genuinely cares about her clients and delivers outstanding results.

Thank you, Zareen, for your outstanding service and for helping our family achieve this significant milestone. We are forever grateful for your expertise and support.
