EAT Practice and Procedure : Appellate Jurisdiction/Reasons/Burns-Barke – JURISDICTIONAL POINTS
Worker, employee or neither
Claim in time and effective date of termination
The Claimant’s appeal against the debarring of him in the appeal was really an application for relief from sanctions. Having heard the substantive argument in the appeal, the application was granted as the case raised an important point.
The Claimant changed at his request from a contract of employment and was then engaged on a zero hours contract. The Employment Judge did not make sufficient findings about what the obligations of the parties were under this contract. The appeal was allowed and remitted to the same judge for a further hearing so that the urgent issue of such contracts could be determined.
