B&M Retail Ltd employment tribunal cases

Unlawful deduction from wages and breach of contract

Heard at Manchester

The Tribunal found that the agreed salary at the interview was £32,000 and that the first contract sent was withdrawn before it was read or accepted.

Unfair dismissal

The tribunal concluded that it was not reasonably practicable for the claimant to present the claim on time, so the claim was allowed to proceed.

Unfair Dismissal

Heard at Liverpool

The tribunal refused the respondent’s costs application because the claimant’s conduct did not meet the threshold of vexatious or unreasonable behaviour and the amendment claim, while unlikely to succeed, was not deemed to have no reasonable prospect, and the claimant’s limited means were taken into account.
