EAT VICTIMISATION DISCRIMINATION – Whistleblowing
The Claimant was a worker seconded to the Respondent. She was dismissed in circumstances giving rise to a claim for PIDA discrimination. The ET held that as the Respondent had failed to comply with the ACAS Code she was entitled to an uplift under section 207A Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992. The appeal was allowed because claims under section 207A may only be made by employees, not by workers.
