struck_out

The unfair dismissal claim was struck out because the claimant lacked the statutory two‑year service and the whistleblowing disclosure occurred after the dismissal, so the claim had no reasonable prospect of success.

Legal Issues (1)
  • Requirement of two years' continuous service for unfair dismissal under s108 ERA; constructive dismissal does not bypass the service test; applicability of s103A ERA for whistleblowing claims and the need for the protected disclosure to be the principal reason for dismissal.
