Holt v Res On Site Ltd: EAT 27 Feb 2014

EAT Unfair Dismissal- – Employment Judge considering dismissal process as a whole; holding that the decision was fair notwithstanding some of the reasons initially relied on did not survive the appeal stage.
No error of law. Applying Taylor v OCS Group Ltd [2006] IRLR 613 EAT, the EJ had adopted the correct approach.
There could be no challenge to the EJ’s case management decision to exclude certain evidence and the decision reached on contributory fault was not susceptible to appeal on the basis of perversity.
