Rejected petition Change the length of time in a job for unfair dismissal. From 2years plus.

I am being let go from a job. I have been told if I had been there for longer I could go for unfair dismissal. But I’ve unfortunately only been here for 1 year. I think it’s should be changed from 2 plus years.

More details

I have spoken to acas and they have told me that if I had been here longer I could go for unfair dismissal.
