        Timescales<\/strong><\/span>
        \nEmployment cases generally take 1 year to run. Staged 1-5 can typically take 1-2 weeks each. Stages 7-11 and 13 can typically take 2-3 weeks each.\u00a0 Where a stage involves a date for a hearing, we are reliant on the Tribunal to set the date, so we are unable to give an estimate as to timescales.<\/p>\n
