Organise the suspension letter, pay records, contract, disciplinary code, allegations, access instructions, follow-ups and timeline before seeking labour advice.
Avoid assuming the pay position, breaching access instructions, deleting records, delaying a referral, resigning impulsively or signing unclear suspension terms.

Keep the suspension notice, contract, workplace code, charge documents, payslips, bank proof, correspondence and hearing notices needed to assess the position.
Test an employer's fairness statement against the written reason, pay status, duration, workplace rules, opportunity to respond, review history and referral date.
Before referring a suspension dispute, establish whether it is precautionary or punitive, paid or unpaid, the relevant date, correct forum and requested remedy.
