Onwuka v Spherion Technology (UK) Ltd and others: EAT 6 Feb 2008

EAT Transfer of Undertakings: Transfer
The Appellant was employed by R1. He worked for a particular consultancy in R1’s business. That part of R1’s business was sold. The only issue remaining in the EAT was whether he remained working for that part of R1’s business at the time of the sale so as to be automatically transferred to the purchaser’s employment, or whether he had by then ceased to work for that part of the business and so was not transferred.
Held: the ET was entitled to hold that he had ceased to work in the part of the business transferred and so remained employed by R1.
