Employment - From: 1992 To: 1992This page lists 347 cases, and was prepared on 02 April 2018.   Regina v Secretary of State for the Environment, Ex parte NALGO; CA 1992 - (1992) 5 Admin LR 785; [1993] ALR 785   Barber v Thames Television plc; CA 1992 - [1992] ICR 661  P v Nottinghamshire County Council [1992] IRLR 362 1992 Employment 1 Citers  PSM International PLC v Whitehouse [1992] IRLR 279 1992 CA Lloyd LJ Employment The question of what constituted a trade secret or similar is a question of degree. 1 Citers  Sartor v P and O European Ferries (Felixstowe) Ltd [1992] IRLR 271 1992 CA Purchas LJ, Ralph Gibson LJ Employment When considering whether an employer had acted reasonably in a disciplinary hearing, all that section 57 required was (Purchas LJ) "that the employer should have a reason falling within the provisions and that, in reaching that reason, he acted reasonably". Ralph Gibson LJ said: "The appeal was by rehearing and there was on that occasion no significant defect in the proceedings. Any defects in what had gone before were cured by the opportunity to appeal." The fact that a particular manager has been involved at an earlier stage does not necessarily prevent him sitting on a disciplinary hearing. The question of the fairness of the procedures and the hearings at either stage of the disciplinary hearing or the appeal process, were fair or fundamentally flawed, is a question of fact for the Industrial Tribunal. 1 Citers  In Re Hartlebury Printers Ltd [1992] ICR 559; [1993] BCLC 902 1992 Morritt J Insolvency, Employment, European Insolvency, at least per se, does not amount to a special circumstance exempting an employer from consulting employees on redundancy. Morritt J noted the distinction in the Directive between contemplated and projected redundancies and section 99 to an employer "proposing to dismiss" and said: "The Union contends that both those sections should be construed to give effect to the Directive so that the duty under section 99 arises when an employer has redundancies in contemplation. That it is the duty of the Court, if possible, to construe United Kingdom legislation so as to comply with the United Kingdom's obligations under an EEC Directive is not in doubt. But that must be achieved, if at all, by proper processes of construction, not so far as the Court is concerned by the equivalent of legislation. Dealing first with the Directive, it seems to me that the word "projected" in Article 3 is used in the sense of "then intended" after the processes of consultation with the Union had been completed." . . Thus the contemplation referred to in Article 2(1) is something less than intention. Nevertheless, the range of mental states included within the word is wide. It would extend from merely "thinking about" to "having in view or expecting". In the latter sense, but not the former, the word would equate with the verb to propose . . Approaching that problem from the wording of section 99 I think it is clear, not least from subsection (5) that the phrase "an employer proposing to dismiss as redundant" cannot include one who is merely thinking about the possibilities of redundancies. Thus I cannot construe the word "proposing" to embrace the full range of the possible meaning of the word "contemplating" but I can construe "contemplating" in a sense equivalent to "proposing". Article 2 (1) of the Directive has not, so far as I know, been construed by the European Court of Justice. Thus I assume, because it is for the Court of Justice and not for me to decide, that section 99 does comply with the United Kingdom's obligations." Employment Protection Act 1975 99 1 Citers  Lefebvre v HOJ Industries Ltd [1992] 1 SCR 831 1992 Employment All contracts of employment are, as a matter of law, subject to an implied term that they are terminable on reasonable notice, and such a term can be displaced only by clear words. 1 Citers  Regina v Hull University Visitor, ex parte Page [1992] ICR 67 1992 CA Employment The employee's terms included two provisions, one in his letter of appointment which provided for either party to terminate on three months' notice in writing, and one in the university's statutes empowering the university to dismiss him for good cause. Held: He could be dismissed on either basis. Good cause was not required if three month's notice was given. The right to terminate on notice was not to be cut down by the "good cause" term. The court made clear, that this was a question of construction of the particular contractual documents and terms involved and no general principle of law was established that notice clauses in such contracts are to prevail over other express terms concerned with termination. 1 Citers   Parker Foundry Ltd v Slack; CA 1992 - [1992] ICR 302; [1992] IRLR 11  GMB v Rankin and Harrison [1992] IRLR 514 1992 EAT Employment The proper approach when setting a protective award for non-consultation was to start with the maximum period and to make allowance according to any mitigation found. 1 Citers  Red Bank Manufacturing Co Ltd v Meadows [1992] ICR 204; [1991] UKEAT 125_90_1411; [1991] UKEAT 567_90_1411; [1992] IRLR 209 1992 EAT Tucker J Employment A party wishing to complain about a member of the employment tribunal should make his complaint to that tribunal rather than at the EAT. The Polkey principle must be considered by the Tribunal in assessing compensation for unfair dismissal even though it was not raised by the parties before them. 1 Cites 1 Citers [ Bailii ] - [ Bailii ]  Piggott Brothers and Co Ltd v Jackson [1992] ICR 85 1992 CA Lord Donaldson of Lymington MR Employment The court asked under what circumstances an appellate court could interfere with the decision of a lower court in employment cases: ´What matters is whether the decision under appeal was a permissible option. To answer that question in the negative in the context of employment law, the appeal tribunal will almost always have to be able to identify a finding of fact which was unsupported by any evidence or a clear self-misdirection in law by the industrial tribunal. If it cannot do this, it should re-examine with the greatest care its preliminary conclusion that the decision under appeal was not a permissible option and has to be characterised as "perverse".' 1 Citers  Financial Times Ltd v Byrne and others [1992] UKEAT 701_91_0701 7 Jan 1992 EAT Employment 1 Cites [ Bailii ] - [ Bailii ]  Gardener v Haydn Davies Catering Equipment and Another (1988) Ltd [1992] UKEAT 8_90_0901 9 Jan 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Wilton v Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Health Authority [1992] UKEAT 324_90_1401 14 Jan 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  BOC Ltd v McConnon [1992] UKEAT 613_89_1401 14 Jan 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Institute of Motor Industry v Harvey [1992] UKEAT 132_91_1401 14 Jan 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  C James and Sons v Puglia [1992] UKEAT 96_90_1501 15 Jan 1992 EAT Wood J P Employment The claimant had been made redundant after many years.

The employer replied that the employee had resigned. Held: The employer's appeal was dismissed. The resignation had taken place in a heated moment, and it was not conclusive. An employer may not be able to rely upon a resignation made by an employee which had obviously been made in the heat of the moment. Constructive dismissal might still be a possibility. However (Wood J) "As we have said the industrial members take the view that the way in which this industrial tribunal have expressed themselves puts too high a burden upon employers. If words of resignation are unambiguous then prima facie an employer is entitled to treat them as such, but in the field of employment personalities constitute an important consideration. Words may be spoken or actions expressed in temper or in the heat of the moment or under extreme pressure ("being jostled into a decision") and indeed the intellectual make-up of an employee may be relevant: (and he gives a citation). These we refer to as `special circumstances'. Where `special circumstances' arise it may be unreasonable for an employer to assume a resignation and to accept it forthwith. A reasonable period of time should be allowed to lapse and if circumstances arise during that period which put the employer on notice that that further inquiry is desirable to see whether the resignation was really intended and can properly be assumed, then such inquiry is ignored at the employer's risk. He runs the risk that ultimately evidence may be forthcoming which indicates that in the `special circumstances' the intention to resign was not the correct interpretation when the facts are judged objectively". 1 Cites 1 Citers [ Bailii ]  Bowers v Harris Office Supplies Ltd [1992] UKEAT 567_91_0602 6 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Luke v Navy Army and Airforce Institutes [1992] UKEAT 223_90_0602 6 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Burkett and others v Pendletons (Sweets) Ltd [1992] UKEAT 167_90_0702 7 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Cardiff Women's Aid v Hartup [1992] UKEAT 761_93_0802 8 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Humber Workforce Contractors Ltd v Langley and others [1992] UKEAT 369_91_1002 10 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Cold Drawn Tubes Ltd v Middleton [1992] UKEAT 26_91_1202 12 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Pitman v Drake and Scull Engineering Ltd [1992] UKEAT 103_90_1302 13 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Solman v Balbes [1992] UKEAT 395_90_1402 14 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Collins v Noble (T/A Rafters) and Another [1992] UKEAT 270_90_1402 14 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Bright v Walters and others [1992] UKEAT 241_92_1502 15 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Provincial Insurance Plc v Loxley [1992] UKEAT 161_90_1702 17 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Surelock Mcgill Ltd v Masih [1992] UKEAT 616_92_1702 17 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  M Aslam v Yorkshire Rider Ltd [1992] UKEAT 452_89_1702 17 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Iredale v Holland and Barrett Ltd [1992] UKEAT 148_91_1802 18 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Dixon v T D Bridger Ltd [1992] UKEAT 664_91_1802 18 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  E I Rogoff Ltd v De Vries [1992] UKEAT 718_91_1802 18 Feb 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Doyle and Others v Northumbria Probation Committee Gazette, 19 February 1992 19 Feb 1992 QBD Employment The right to seek a private law remedy after withdrawal of the right to claim some expenses on financial grounds was not lost despite there also being a public remedy because of public law elements in the decision.

It made an offer to staff, on the point of dismissing for refusal to sign, of less favourable terms, including reduced pay and holiday entitlement and the abolition of overtime rates for weekend and bank holiday work. The Tribunal held that no reasonable employer should have expected the Applicants to accept the new contracts, and the dismissals were unfair. Held. The employer's appeal succeeded. There was a danger in promoting the nature of the employer's offer of new terms and conditions of employment to the status of the sole or crucial test, because that involved a departure from the wording of the then equivalent of section 98(4), which required the Tribunal to consider the question of fairness at the time of the dismissal rather than at the earlier stage of the offer, and "if there is a sound good business reason for the particular reorganisation the unreasonableness or reasonableness of the employer's conduct has to be looked at in the context of that reorganisation".

The expression "transfer of an undertaking, business or part of a business" contained in Article 1(1) of Directive 77/187 refers to the case in which the entity in question has retained its identity. In order to ascertain whether or not there has been such a transfer, it is necessary to determine, having regard to all the factual circumstances characterizing the operation in question, whether the functions performed are in fact carried out or resumed by the new legal person with the same or similar activities, it being understood that activities of a special nature which constitute independent functions may, where appropriate, be equated with a business or part of a business within the meaning of the directive.

He claimed that the relationship of trust and confidence with the company had been undermined so far as to be a repudiatory breach of the contract. Before his complaint of unfair dismissal, he wrote without prejudice to the employers offering to stay a full time employee with a payment for ceasing to act as a director. At an interlocutory hearing the Chairman refused to admit the letter in evidence. The employers appealed saying that the "without prejudice" letter was inconsistent with the his assertion that the relationship of trust and confidence had been undermined and that it should be admitted as an exception to the general principle of exclusion. Held: The employee's appeal failed. The principles for excluding "without prejudice" correspondence in a Court applied equally to proceedings in Industrial Tribunals. The letter would only be admissible if it came within a recognised exception to the general principle, namely that there would be an abuse of the rule if it was applied to exclude the "without prejudice" correspondence. The appropriate test was whether, if the "without prejudice" material were suppressed, something amounting to a dishonest case would be prosecuted, and that since there was no such dishonesty in the present case, the privilege should remain. Knox J said: "As often happens in difficult cases two well established and valuable legal principles collide. One is that it is desirable that courts and tribunals should have all the available material before them with which to arrive at a just conclusion in accordance with law. The other is that it is desirable that parties should be in a position freely to negotiate a compromise of their disputes without having what they say in the course of those negotiations revealed subsequently and used against them in litigation or proceedings before a tribunal. There is inevitably going to be a contradiction or conflict where an admission, or a statement of present intention, is made which conflicts with the parties' pleaded case and we quite see that in the present circumstances there is going to be a difficult conflict between the proposition that the applicant's trust and confidence was destroyed in late April 1991 and remained destroyed to 13 May and on the other hand his willingness to continue as an employee if certain financial inducements were forthcoming. But the existence of the conflict is not of itself, in our view, sufficient to warrant our giving priority to the first of the two principles, namely, that the courts should have all available material before them, over the other, namely, protection for "without prejudice" correspondence. It seems to us, particularly having regard to the authorities that are collected in Mr. Foskett's book, that the yardstick that should be applied in this category of cases is whether the "without prejudice" material involves, if it is suppressed, something amounting to a dishonest case being prosecuted if the pleaded case continues. The nearest example amongst the quoted cases in Mr. Foskett's book, to which we were referred, is a decision of Mr. Anthony May Q.C., Hawick Jersey international Ltd. v. Caplan, The Times, 11 March 1988, and the account given of it is this: "P claimed a repayment of a loan to D of £10,000 made by means of a cheque. D denied the transaction was a loan because he had supplied £10,000 cash. D secretly tape recorded a "without prejudice" meeting at which (a) P did not dispute and indeed accepted D's repeated assertions that the transaction was not a loan but one involving an exchange for £10,000 in cash and (b) P expressly or impliedly said that the proceedings were brought to persuade D to reach a fairer settlement or to settle other differences." and Mr. May, sitting as a deputy judge of the Queen's Bench Division, held that P was threatening to persist with dishonest proceedings and accordingly that "without prejudice" privilege did not apply to the discussion. Other more extreme examples are given of threats in the nature of blackmail and other wholly undesirable and, indeed, criminal activities which cannot be indulged in cloaked under the privilege of "without prejudice". We have therefore looked to see whether we are of the view that the exclusion of the "without prejudice" material and persistence in the applicant's case as pleaded in his originating application involves something in the nature of dishonest conduct on his part. Tested by that test we conclude that the material should remain hidden from the industrial tribunal because we do not think that there is dishonesty involved in such an attitude."

[1992] EUECJ C-209/91; [1992] ECR I-5755 12 Nov 1992 ECJ European, Employment Europa Article 1(1) of Directive 77/187 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees' rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of businesses is to be interpreted as meaning that the directive may apply in a situation in which one businessman, by a contract, assigns to another businessman responsibility for running a facility for staff, which was formerly managed directly, in return for a fee and various advantages, details of which are laid down by the agreement between them. Article 3 of Directive 77/187 is to be interpreted as meaning that that upon a transfer the terms and conditions of the contract of employment or employment relationship relating to wages, in particular those relating to the date of payment and the composition of wages, cannot be altered even if the total amount of the wages remains the same. The directive does not, however, preclude an alteration of the employment relationship with the new employer in so far as the applicable national law allows such an alteration to be made in situations other than the transfer of an undertaking. Furthermore, the transferee is also bound to continue to observe the terms and conditions of employment agreed in any collective agreement on the same terms applicable to the transferor under that agreement, until the date of termination or expiry of the collective agreement or the entry into force or application of another collective agreement.

[1992] EUECJ C-237/91 16 Dec 1992 ECJ European, Immigration, Employment 1. The third indent of Article 6(1) of Decision No 1/80 of the EEC-Turkey Council of Association must be interpreted as meaning that a Turkish worker does not fulfil the requirement, laid down in that provision, of having been engaged in legal employment for at least four years, where he was employed on the basis of a right of residence conferred on him only by the operation of national legislation permitting residence in the host country pending completion of the procedure for the grant of a residence permit, even though his right of residence has been upheld by a judgment of a court at first instance against which an appeal is pending. 2. The first indent of Article 6(1) of Decision No 1/80 of the EEC-Turkey Council of Association must be interpreted as meaning that a Turkish national who obtained a permit to reside on the territory of a Member State in order to marry there a national of that Member State and has worked there for more than one year for the same employer under a valid work permit is entitled under that provision to renewal of his work permit even if at the time of determination of his application his marriage has been dissolved. 3. A Turkish worker who fulfils the requirements of the first or third indent of Article 6(1) of Decision No 1/80 of the EEC-Turkey Council of Association may rely directly on those provisions in order to obtain the renewal not only of his work permit but also of his residence permit, since the right of residence is indispensable to access to and engagement in paid employment. That conclusion cannot be invalidated by the consideration that, pursuant to Article 6(3) of Decision No 1/80, the procedures for applying paragraph (1) are to be established under national rules. Article 6(3) merely clarifies the obligation incumbent on Member States to take such administrative measures as may be necessary for the implementation of that provision, without empowering them to make conditional or restrict the application of the precise and unconditional right which it grants to Turkish workers.

The directive does not, however, require Member States to provide that, in the event of the employee deciding of his own accord not to continue with the contract of employment or employment relationship with the transferee, the contract or relationship should be maintained with the transferor. Neither does the directive preclude this. In such a case, it is for the Member States to determine what the fate of the contract of employment or employment relationship with the transferor should be. The expression "laws, regulations or administrative provisions" within the meaning of Article 7 of Council Directive 77/187 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safeguarding of employees' rights in the event of transfers of undertakings must be understood as meaning the laws, regulations or administrative provisions of a Member State as they are interpreted by the courts of that State. The claimant employees objected to becoming employees of the transferee, an attitude which the transferor (who then dismissed them) argued was not open to them in the light of the Directive. Held: The Directive did not have the purpose or effect of compulsorily transferring an employee's employment contract or relationship against his or her will, but that, in such a case, it was for the law of the relevant Member State to determine whether the contract or relationship was to be regarded as terminated by the transferor or transferee or to be maintained with the transferor. 1 Citers [ Bailii ]  Darr and Another v LRC Products Ltd [1992] UKEAT 442_90_1612 16 Dec 1992 EAT Employment 1 Cites [ Bailii ]  Port of London Authority v Payne and others [1992] UKEAT 277_92_1712 17 Dec 1992 EAT Employment 1 Cites 1 Citers [ Bailii ]  Bestway Cash and Carry Ltd v Sehgal [1992] UKEAT 393_91_1712 17 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Weston v Metzeler (Uk) Ltd [1992] UKEAT 303_91_1712 17 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Silk v Egerton (Grp) Ltd [1992] UKEAT 389_91_1812 18 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  James Halstead Ltd v Curtis [1992] UKEAT 152_91_1812 18 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  Singh v Robertson Tooling Ltd [1992] UKEAT 41_92_2112 21 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  KPG Computer Support Services Ltd v Abayomi [1992] UKEAT 303_92_2112 21 Dec 1992 EAT Employment [ Bailii ]  |
