Okoro and Another v Taylor Woodrow Construction Ltd and Others: EAT 26 May 2011

EAT Jurisdictional Points : Claim In Time and Effective Date of Termination
Contract workers banned – they claimed for discriminatory reasons – from working again for the principal. Claim brought some 6 months after this. Question was whether the ban was an act extending over a period, so as to confer jurisdiction, or whether Employment Tribunal was entitled to hold (as it did) that it was not. ET decision upheld. The decision was one of fact, and here there was neither a misdirection in law nor perversity.
