EAT CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT
Incorporation into contract
Two hundred and fifty local authority employees claimed unlawful deductions from wages when the Council implemented a new pay model in accordance with single status agreement (a collective agreement); individual contracts of employment stated that terms and conditions incorporated collective agreements negotiated nationally from time to time. The Employment Tribunal concluded that a particular term of the collective agreement was apt for incorporation into the individual contracts and its effect was that the Respondents had been contractually entitled to implement the new pay model. The Employment Appeal Tribunal agreed and dismissed the appeals, the result of which was to confirm the Tribunal’s dismissal of all claims.
