Simmonds-Plummer London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham: EAT 25 Nov 2021

Practice and Procedure
The appellant complained that after she had resigned from her employment, her employer decided to continue a disciplinary process, finding that she was guilty of gross misconduct and purporting to dismiss her and that this was damaging for her future employment.
Her appeal against the striking out of her Equality Act 2010 claims succeeded. The Employment Tribunal had erred in failing to appreciate that her claims of harassment (race and sex) and victimisation in respect of these actions were for post-termination discrimination and had struck out the claim on a misconceived basis.
