Royal Free Hampstead NHS Trust v Shah: EAT 16 Jan 2014

EAT Unfair Dismissal : Reasonableness of Dismissal – Taken as a whole the Employment Tribunal’s Judgment contained enough material to suggest that after starting out well by directing themselves in terms of the BHS v Burchell case, the Employment Tribunal has slipped into ‘the substitution mindset’. Large parts of the Judgment consist of assertion without any explanation as to how the conclusions have been arrived at. The case was remitted to a differently constituted Employment Tribunal for a complete re-hearing.
