Employment tribunals are disruptive and expensive

In the UK last year (Apr 09 - Mar 10) there were 236,100 employment tribunal claims.  An incredible 944 per working day. (Source: Employment Tribunal's own statistics)

As well as the volume, the cost of tribunals rises every year. Over the same period the average payout for an unfair dismissal claim was

£9,120

The maximum award is capped at £65,300. On top of this you have to defend the case. Using a typical solicitor at £200 per hour you could pay anywhere between £3,500 and £8,000.
