The legislation does not allow for the necessary flexibility for an individual who seeks to use one or other of the options given. For example, if a person has to select whether to go for unfair dismissal or a discriminatory dismissal, there are different statutes with different tests available to him or her, which could make it difficult for him or her. A little bit of flexibility in the system could be useful so that the person does not necessarily have to tie himself or herself down so early.
