EAT Practice and Procedure : Perversity – The presence of a clause in a contract of employment requiring the employee to notify a change of address does not exempt the employer, where it is apparent that an important letter to the employee has been returned undelivered, from taking reasonable steps to use an alternative means of communication, if such alternative means is readily available.
