Inventec (Scotland) Corporation Ltd v Duffy: EAT 4 Oct 2007

EAT Unfair dismissal on account of selection for redundancy without application of any criteria. Tribunal refused to deduct the extent to which the claimant’s redundancy payment exceeded the basic award that would have been payable had the claimant not been made redundant. On appeal, Employment Appeal Tribunal held that Tribunal had erred. It had no choice; it had to make the deduction: s.123(7) of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
