‘Tell-tale signs’ | More workers using AI to help file employment disputes, law firm claims

Harrison, who advises businesses on employment law matters from HR policy to tribunal litigation, emphasised the negative impact this could have for employees and employers, including lengthier and more costly legal processes.
