EAT TRADE UNION RIGHTS – Action short of dismissal
VICTIMISATION DISCRIMINATION – Other forms of victimisation
The Employment Tribunal did not err in failing to determine the Appellant’s claim under Section 146 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 on a balance of probabilities.
The Appellant had also claimed victimisation under the Race Relations Act 1976 by being taken through the disciplinary process and being dismissed. The Employment Tribunal erred in failing to consider as a separate claim of victimisation under the Race Relations Act 1976 being taken through the Respondent’s disciplinary process. Being taken through such a process was capable of constituting a detriment.
The case was remitted to the same Employment Tribunal for determination of the claim of victimisation under the Race Relations Act 1976.
