Cormie v Rodger (T/A Dalneigh Post Office and Stores): EAT 26 Jan 2012

EAT UNFAIR DISMISSAL – Exclusions including worker/jurisdiction
Contract of employment. Whether Claimant was an employee where, after eight years as an employee working in a post office and general store, she took over (in addition to her previous duties) the duties of sub-postmaster, entering into a contract with the Post Office to do so. On appeal, held that Employment Tribunal had erred in failing to find that she had remained an employee of the Respondent; they had failed to look at the whole relevant circumstances.
