Hill v G and R Pollard Engineering Ltd: EAT 15 Jun 2010

EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE
Bias, misconduct and procedural irregularity
Appellate jurisdiction/reasons/Burns-Barke
Respondent constructively dismissed Appellant. The Employment Tribunal awarded compensation but in doing so it (1) limited the award for future loss of earnings to 31 December 2009; (2) reduced the award by 70 per cent to reflect Appellant’s contribution to his dismissal; and (c) awarded a 10 per cent uplift pursuant to s.31 of the Employment Act 2002. The manner of calculating the future loss of earnings did not appear from the judgment.
Held: the judgment was not Meek compliant and the case should be remitted to the same Tribunal for further consideration.
