Am I eligible
for my claim?
Eligibility depends on the claim — service length, time limits, status and exclusions. Check claim by claim before you assume you can or cannot proceed.
One-off purchase · Yours to keep · Account required
People ask “can I claim?” as if there is a single gate. In practice you check eligibility against a specific claim type — and the answer for unfair dismissal can differ from discrimination or unpaid wages on the same facts.
Same facts
One situation can pass one claim and fail another
Unpaid wages
Often open
Day-one right · short time limit still applies
Ordinary unfair dismissal
Service gate
Often needs qualifying service · separate clock
Checking claim by claim avoids false confidence and false despair.

Claim type
Unfair dismissal, discrimination, wages and whistleblowing each have different gates. One fact pattern can pass one and fail another.
Status
Employee, worker, or something else. Some rights only open for employees; others protect workers more broadly.
Service / timing
Qualifying service for some dismissal claims. Short filing windows for many claim types — often measured in months, not years.
Exclusions
Some situations fall outside a claim type even when the facts feel unfair. Catching that early saves wasted effort.
