Claim dismissed
Constructive Dismissal and Whistleblowing
Heard at Edinburgh
All claims were dismissed because the whistleblowing detriment claim was time-barred and the constructive unfair dismissal claim failed as the claimant did not resign in response to a breach and had affirmed the contract.
Legal Issues (4)
- Whether the claimant's emails qualified as protected disclosures
- whether the move to Hermiston Hall was a detriment on grounds of protected disclosure
- whether the constructive dismissal claim met the Western Excavating v Sharp test
- whether the whistleblowing claim was time-barred
