Key Organics Ltd v Billington: EAT 8 Feb 2010

EAT 1. The Employment Tribunal ought to have held that the dismissal of the Claimant was automatically unfair, because the Respondent did not comply with step 2 of the Standard Procedure.
2. The Employment Tribunal’s reasoning on the Polkey issue was inadequate to explain its finding of a 25% chance of employment at andpound;45,000 per annum. Case remitted and guidance given by reference to Software 2000 v Andrews [2007] IRLR 568 (Elias P) and Virgin Media Ltd v Seddington and Eland [UKEAT/0539/08].
