Employment Tribunal Compensation Limits 2025-2026

The UK government has revised certain rates and limits that determine the compensation awarded by Employment Tribunals for various types of claims.

We've updated our handy 2-page table summarising the key new rates and compensation limits effective today (6 April 2025) to 5 April 2026 inclusive. We hope you’ll find this helpful when calculating the value of potential employment-related claims, whether you’re an employee considering bringing claims, or an employer wondering how much you might have to pay out in compensation if you lose at an Employment Tribunal.

As always, should you have any questions regarding this update or any other employment law matter, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
