Whether infringed
UNFAIR DISMISSAL
Reasonableness of dismissal
The Tribunal erred in law in finding that the Appellant had not complied with the requirements of step 2 of the Standard Dismissal and Disciplinary Procedure (Schedule 3 to the Employment Act 2002). Finding of automatic unfair dismissal, and consequential increase in award by virtue of section 31(3) set aside.
The Tribunal did not err in law in finding the dismissal to be substantively unfair. Nor did it err in law in its assessment of contributory fault and decrease in award by virtue of section 31(2).
