It depends if she has worked at the company for more than 12 months IIRC (It was 24 months under the Tories!).

If not, then they can sack her for any reason they want (barring discrimination) and don't have to give a reason or notice period.


that sort of thing will be written down in either a contract, or a statement of employment particulars. usually, there is a notice period of 4 weeks, or 4 weeks pay in lieu.
