Unfair Dismissal and Discrimination
Heard at Watford
The tribunal held the dismissal substantively unfair because the Trust unreasonably failed to manage the conditional appointment and allow time for specialist registration, while the race discrimination claim was dismissed.
Legal Issues (3)
- Whether the dismissal was substantively unfair under ERA section 98
- whether the employer acted reasonably in relying on lack of specialist registration
- and whether the claimant was treated less favourably because of race (direct discrimination).

Unpaid Wages and Breach of Contract
Heard at Cambridge
The Tribunal concluded that, despite the label, the contract and surrounding facts demonstrated sufficient control, integration and mutuality of obligation to treat the claimant as an employee, giving the Tribunal jurisdiction to hear his unfair dismissal claim.
Legal Issues (5)
- Whether the claimant’s contractual and factual relationship satisfied the criteria for an employee under ERA s 230 – focusing on mutuality of obligation
- degree of control
- integration into the organisation
- inability to substitute
- and the interpretation of a contract that was labelled as an agency‑worker agreement but contained employment‑type terms. The judge also considered the contra‑proferentem rule on ambiguous contract clauses.
