EAT UNFAIR DISMISSAL
Reason for dismissal including substantial other reason
Polkey deduction
The Tribunal assessed compensation for unfair dismissal without giving correct consideration to the questions (1) whether the Respondent adequately considered whether it could offer the Claimant alternative employment, (2) whether the Respondent selected the Claimant fairly for redundancy. Case remitted for the Tribunal to consider these questions and then to consider compensation afresh in the light of its conclusions upon them.
Late application to amend Notice of Appeal to argue an additional point – refused by Registrar – interlocutory appeal dismissed.
