EAT Unfair Dismissal – Dismissal/ambiguous resignation
On the parties’ pleaded cases the Claimant asserted that he had been dismissed by the Respondent, the Respondent that he had resigned. Both cases rejected by the Employment Tribunal, who found that the employment contract continued.
Respondent’s appeal allowed. On the Claimant’s case the employment had terminated. That was the basis of his claim of unfair dismissal. He could not resile from that position. Gunton and Geys considered.
