Daniel returns from two weeks at sea to a double edition covering the biggest shake-up in workplace procedures for a generation: the draft new Acas Code of Practice on Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures, the first full rewrite since 2009. Informal resolution, new letter requirements, a necessity test for suspension, and worker terminology throughout. Plus electronic balloting for union votes arriving on 25 August, key consultation deadlines, and an unexpected encounter with Elaine Paige.

The government published two new ERA 2025 consultations this week. The first - and most significant - seeks views on a new organisation-wide threshold for collective redundancy consultation, with proposed trigger points ranging from 250 to 1,000 redundancies depending on the method chosen. The second consults on protecting workers from detriment for taking part in industrial action.

In this episode, Daniel Barnett considers the impact for employers and lawyers on the proposed removal of the cap for the unfair dismissal compensatory award.

Important: this episode was recorded before the government’s amendments were considered by the House of Lords, so the content may become out of date if the House of Lords rejects the Commons’ amendments to the Employment Rights Bill.

This is a replay version of an episode originally published in July 2019. Please note that any law discussed in the episode may be out of date.

SOSR is like a classic car. It can work well but only in the right conditions.

An employer must have a fair reason to dismiss an employee.

When other avenues are exhausted, employers can sort to SOSR - which stands for ‘some other substantial reason’. Rather unhelpfully, there is no definition or guidance about its meaning. It must be 'substantial', which can include anything that is not frivolous or insignificant.

In this episode of Employment Law Matters, Daniel Barnett talks about the top five SOSR dismissals and why lawyers use that phrase, and looks at in which situations the use of SOSR can prove most useful.

The Court of Appeal has just handed down the important decision of Higgs v Farmor’s School, dealing with the circumstances when an employer can (or cannot) dismiss an employee for expressing gender critical views. I recorded a 45 minute discussion about the ramifications of this case for employers, exclusively for members of the HR Inner Circle. Here are the first few minutes of that recording for podcast listeners.

Since 2017, all employment tribunal judgments have been published online by the government. But there’s a growing concern that publication of judgments online may lead to employers searching up potential recruits, and then refusing to hire anyone who has brought a tribunal claim against a previous employer – presumably on the grounds that they are presumed to be litigious.

In this episode, I discuss this (and other) issues with three leading academics:

Dr Alysia Blackham is an Associate Professor at Melbourne Law School and a former Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge.

Jeremias Adams-Prassl is Professor of Law at Magdalen College, Oxford. He is particularly interested in the future of work and innovation, with recent books including Humans as a Service: the Promise and Perils of Work in the Gig Economy and Great Debates in EU Law.

Abi Adams-Prassl is an associate professor in economics at New College, Oxford. She specialises in researching decision making within the consumer arena, and with Jeremias Adams-Prassl, developing frameworks for quantifying access to justice in the UK legal system.

Are employees always entitled to the four week trial period in redundancy alternative work situations?

The four-week trial period that operates when an employee is offered alternative work in a redundancy exercise is well-known. But it is also widely misunderstood. The reality is that in most cases where an employee at risk of redundancy is offered alternative work, the trial period will not apply. In that case employers will have to think very carefully about what happens if the new role does not work out.

In episode 72 of Employment Law Matters, you’ll learn about the differences between a wrongful dismissal and an unfair dismissal claim.

It is a quirk of UK employment law that there are two separate and distinct claims that can be brought (leaving aside any issue of discrimination) in challenging a dismissal.

Unfair dismissal is a claim created by statute — currently found in Part X of the Employment Rights Act 1996. Wrongful dismissal is a contractual claim where the employee alleges that the dismissal was not carried out in accordance with the contract. Both claims can be brought in the employment tribunal, although an employee hoping to recover more than £25,000 for wrongful dismissal will need to pursue that claim in the normal civil courts.

The Restriction of Public Sector Exit Payment Regulations 2020 aim to prevent public bodies from making excessive payouts to departing employees. They cap the amount of an exit payment at £95,000. That sounds like a generous enough redundancy package, but things are as ever a little more complicated than that. To discuss the detail I’m joined by employment lawyer and commentator Darren Newman who works closely with a variety of public sector employers – particularly local authorities. You'll learn:-

  • what’s it's all about
  • what organisations are covered?
  • what does the £95,000 cap include, and how is the cap allocated between the different elements of an exit payment? is 95K – what does that include?
  • are there exceptions?
  • when do the Regulations come into force? What about redundancies that are already in the pipeline?
  • Darren Newman's top tip for public sector employers.

Employers are increasingly adapting to recognise the effects that the menopause can have on women and their working lives. It is more important now than ever with older workers expected to stay in work for longer. The menopause is a deeply personal issue, and it is unsurprising that many people prefer not to talk about it. But the landscape is changing. There are more available resources to encourage dialogue, and to help employers understand the challenges that the menopause poses. It is also important to help make working life easier for women who are going through it. As well as the human aspect, there are good business reasons for addressing the menopause.

London Central employment tribunal announces a member has staff has tested positive for Covid-19.

The President of Employment Tribunals (England & Wales), Judge Barry Clarke, issues three new guidance documents.

First is the Presidential Practice Direction on the use of the Welsh Language. This reminds tribunals in Wales than any witness or participant who wishes to use Welsh rather than English is entitled to do so in tribunal proceedings.

Second is the Presidential Practice Direction on remote hearings and open justice. This sets out the way that open justice should be preserved during remote hearings, for example by witness statements being put up on screen or read out by the witness.

Third is the Presidential Guidance on remote and in-person hearings. This sets out the factors to consider when deciding whether a hearing should be remote, partly remote, or in person, and gives guidance on how parties should prepare for remote hearings (including guidance on lodging documents). It also sets out safety factors for in-person hearings.

If an employee is dismissed without any procedure being followed, as a result of breakdown in relations between her and her manager, you'd expect that to be an unfair dismissal - right?

In Linda Gallacher v Abellio Scotrail Limited the Employment Appeal Tribunal upheld a tribunal's decision that it was, in the unusual circumstances of the case, a fair dismissal.

Age discrimination is probably the protected characteristic which gets the least press, yet it’s the one we all share. In this episode, you’ll learn about:-

· The different types of age discrimination

· Justifying age discrimination

· The main exceptions to the laws against age discrimination

Three years ago, I organised and led a closed-doors conference on How to Market and Boost your Employment Law Business. Within a small room, a team of myself and three world-class business speakers taught about 100 people about doubling their fee-earning in two years. A few weeks later, I sold recordings of the course for £597+VAT. We allowed people to buy it for ten days, and then I took it away.

At the time I said I was taking it away forever. But I’ve decided that the current economic situation is so exceptional, I’m going to bring it back. Not only that, but I’m slashing the price to make it a no-brainer for you. You can now get immediate access to the full course for £47+VAT per month, or a one-off lifetime access fee of £157+VAT.

In this episode, Daniel Barnett explains why he’s doing unconscious bias training

Join him on 31 July 2020 at bit.ly/bias2020

Everyone has biases and we can't get rid of them. So this is not about being in the wrong. On the training session, Selwyn Blyth will raise your awareness of the (unintentional) impact of bias - and offer practical suggestions for how to minimise the negative impact at work.

A lot of the learning comes from watching and interacting with scenes delivered by professional actors based on real-life workplace events. You can influence what happens by suggesting how they adapt their behaviour [no role play is required]. This "forum theatre" approach brings the issues to life.

There will also be panel discussion, interactive chat and polling during the session. You won't feel lectured - our aim is to engage you.

The training is split into three parts.

The first part involves theory around cognitive biases and heuristics (mental shortcuts). We'll include some tests where you are shown pictures of people and your instinctive biases are measured, so you can discover whether you are ever susceptible to unconscious bias. We'll learn about affinity bias ('mini me') and confirmation bias ('halo or horns').

The second part involves role playing and practical exercises. Selwyn will, together with two actors, use 'forum theatre' to present different scenes. The first is a (male) manager mishandling a case of poor performance. The second scene is based on a man in his late 40s making a request for flexible working to look after a child; this is mishandled by a (female) manager.

You watch the scenes without interruption and then, through online feedback and discussion (volunteers only - nobody picked on) you will faciliate feedback for the manager on how to handle the situation better. The actors replay the scenes taking on board the feedback, and you can interrupt with suggestions in the online chat box if you are not happy with how it is progressing.

The third and final section of the course explores four strategies for reducing the impact of bias: (1) challenging commonly held stereotypes in an organisation; (2) seeking situational reasons for outcomes; (3) changing perception of relationship with out-group members; and (4) being an active bystander.

If you'd like to join Daniel and be part of this half day training, he’s asking for a £30+VAT contribution towards the fees that he’s paying to Selwyn and the two actors. Assuming he covers those fees, he'll also donate £2,000 to the Runnymede Trust, which is a charity and thinktank that aims to “challenge race inequality in Britain through research, network building, leading debate and policy engagement”, and which is funded entirely by donations.

There are 25 free places, only for those who genuinely can’t afford (not for those who don’t want to ask their boss, or whose boss says ‘no’). The discount code to claim a free place is: FREEPLACE . The code will only work for the first 25 people to use it, so PLEASE don't be use up one of those free places unless you and your employer genuinely cannot afford the course.

  1. Lafferty v Nuffield Health - whether you can dismiss an employee who has been charged, but not convicted, of a crime

  2. Uddin v London Borough of Ealing - a case following on from Royal Mail v Jhuti, about the fairness of a dismissal if an investigating officer withholds information they know about from the disciplinary officer.

Employers are entitled to give notice of termination (whether on grounds of redundancy, or otherwise) to employees who are on furlough. Salary payments made by the employer during furlough can still be reclaimed from HMRC (subject to the limits of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme), despite the employee working out notice.

An unresolved issue is: if employees have agreed to accept 80% of their salary while on furlough, is their notice pay also paid at 80%, or does it revert by operation of law to 100%? Remarkably little has been written on this, in part because such a simple question entails an extremely complex analysis, and in part because even with that analysis, the answer remains opaque.

This podcast argues that despite the established statutory rules, which lead to the answer ‘it depends’, a court or tribunal would strain to ensure that an employee receives 100% of their normal pay during notice period – even if they have agreed to accept 80% - and there are a number of devices a court could use to achieve that outcome.

Unless the employer has taken ‘all reasonable steps’ in advance to stop any sexual conduct from happening, an employer will be liable for one employee’s harassment of another. Tribunals can be reluctant to allow an employer to escape liability because it leaves the employee without any meaningful recourse. The question then is, how do you demonstrate ‘all reasonable steps’?

In this episode, you will learn about the employers’ statutory defence and what reasonable steps you should be taking as an employer.

In this episode, Daniel Barnett predicts the outcome of the two big Supreme Court cases of 2020 in discussion with employment law speaker Darren Newman.

First, they discuss The Royal Mencap Society v Tomlinson-Blake, due to be argued in the Supreme Court later this week, which will consider whether ‘on-call’ workers at care homes are entitled to be paid the minimum wage for periods when they are on call (ie available for work, but not actually working).

Second, they discuss the Uber case, Uber BV v Aslam. Uber lost in the employment tribunal, EAT and Court of Appeal, with 4 out of 5 judges over those stages holding that Uber drivers are ‘workers’, and thus entitled to minimum wage and holiday pay. Will the Supreme Court take a different view later this year?

Can an employer refuse to recruit someone who had a conviction? Or on which circumstances an employer may not legally recruit a person with a certain type of offense?

A great deal of prejudice comes when dealing with someone who has a criminal record. Understandably, many employers have fears or concerns about recruiting people with convictions or who believe, incorrectly, that they cannot employ someone for legal reasons or insurance purposes.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • when convictions become ‘spent’
  • if someone has an unspent conviction, what should you think about when deciding whether to employ them?
  • how to find out about someone’s criminal record
  • dismissing somebody who commits a criminal offence

A dress code can be a part of an employer’s terms and conditions of employment. They set a standard that employers have developed on what they believe is appropriate for employees to wear at work.

However, recent cases have shown that dress codes can be an apple of discord for employees and employers.

What makes a dress code unreasonable, or even discriminatory?

The results of the quiz from the last episode (sorry about the quality; it was recorded on a phone!) following our live draw on Facebook 30 minutes ago...

Congratulations to Gemma Camfield, who won the £100 Amazon voucher.

The answers as to whether the following were protected philosophical beliefs were:

1. A belief that homosexuality is contrary to God’s law? No, because that was held to be not worthy of respect and it conflicted with fundamental human rights of others.

2.  A belief in climate change?  Yes – a passionate belief in climate change was held to be a ‘philosophical belief’ which is protected under equality law. 

3. Anti fox-hunting? Yes, because it was based on a passionate belief in the sanctity of life, which was akin to a ‘philopsophical belief’. 

4. A belief that a poppy should be worn on Remembrance Sunday? No – because although it was an admirable belief, it did not relate to a weighty and substantial aspect of human behaviour.

While most employers would be familiar with religious discrimination rights, the Equality Act 2010 goes beyond safeguarding employees' religious beliefs. It covers ‘philosophical’ beliefs as well.

Many cases have established that certain belief systems can be afforded protection by law. There have also been notable failures to establish a case that meets the criteria for discrimination protection - Consisbee v Crossley Farms Ltd.

In this episode, we’ll discuss what sort of questions will help you confirm if a ‘belief’ qualifies for protection.

Can an employer be held liable for an employee’s post on social media, or for his personal views said to the press? A conflict between an employee’s out-of-work actions and an employer’s reputation can quite easily happen. Employers should ensure that they have detailed conduct policies and should take reasonable steps to ensure such policies are communicated to staff. 

In this episode, Daniel Barnett talks about two harassment cases in recent months: 

  • Forbes v LHR Airport – Can an employer be vicariously liable for an employee’s racist Facebook post?
  • Page v NHS Trust Development Authority – Can an employee be fairly dismissed for the way he expresses his beliefs, rather than the beliefs themselves?

An unauthorised absence can be deemed fair grounds for dismissal, but there could be a lot of reasons why an employee might simply not turn up for work one day - from a simple hangover, to a life threating family emergency. As an employer, it is important that you know how to avoid tribunal claims when dismissing.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • why it’s dangerous to assume the employee has resigned
  • whether you can argue frustration of contract, or that the employee has self-dismissed
  • how to handle the inevitably artificial dismissal process

But there are things that throw a spanner in the works.

In this week’s podcast, Daniel Barnett talks about things to consider when valuing a claim.

In this episode of Employment Law Matters, Daniel Barnett looks at when and how you can suspend an employee. 

Generally, you can suspend as long as you have good reason. Daniel will tell you first about a recent CA decision which said that, and then he will give you five situations where you’ll run into trouble if you suspend.

There are five ways in which suspension can lead to a constructive dismissal claim or, indeed, a finding of unfairness if you subsequently make a decision to dismiss.

SOSR is like a classic car. It can work well but only in the right conditions. 

An employer must have a fair reason to dismiss an employee.

When other avenues are exhausted, employers can sort to SOSR - which stands for ‘some other substantial reason’. Rather unhelpfully, there is no definition or guidance about its meaning. It must be 'substantial', which can include anything that is not frivolous or insignificant.

In this episode of Employment Law Matters, Daniel Barnett talks about the top five SOSR dismissals and why lawyers use that phrase, and looks at in which situations the use of SOSR can prove most useful.

In this episode of Employment Law Matters, Daniel Barnett looks at the complicated and fraught subject of paid annual leave.
