Greco v General Physics UK Ltd: EAT 2 Aug 2016

EAT Practice and Procedure: Bias, Misconduct and Procedural Irregularity
JURISDICTIONAL POINTS
The Claimant complained that the Employment Tribunal (1) failed to determine some issues of sex discrimination which she put forward; (2) misapplied section 123(3) of the Equality Act 2010 by failing to find that the Respondent had been responsible for conduct extending over a period; (3) misapplied section 123(1)(b) by failing to extend time on the just and equitable basis; (4) failed to make proper and sufficient findings concerning a meeting on 9 July and in particular to address section 111A of the Employment Rights Act 1996; (5) demonstrated apparent bias.
Appeal dismissed. None of the grounds were made out. Although the Employment Tribunal had not given specific attention to section 111A of the Employment Rights Act 1996, the Claimant’s case required it to consider what took place at the meeting on 9 July in order to see whether the Respondent’s conduct was improper, and the Employment Tribunal had not offended against the provisions of section 111A.
