Phelan v Rolls -Royce Plc and Others (Unfair Dismissal : Reasonableness of Dismissal): EAT 4 Dec 2014

EAT Unfair Dismissal : Reasonableness of Dismissal – HARASSMENT – Conduct
Appeal permitted to proceed on two grounds. First, having found a potentially fair reason for dismissal (SOSR), did the Employment Tribunal consider fairness under section 98(4) Employment Rights Act? They did. Secondly, did they treat a remark about pregnancy as a complaint of sexual harassment as well as direct discrimination? They did. Appeal dismissed.
