Goodman & Ors v Members of the Executive Committee of Shropshire Unison & Ors UKEAT/0004/10, 0005/10 & 0006/10
Appeal against decision by the ET that there was no relationship between the whistleblowing claims sought to be put and the grievances which had been brought previously, therefore there was no jurisdiction for the court to hear the claims. The EAT disagreed with the ET and said that a claimant who has lodged a grievance about unreasonable conduct on the part of his employer is not necessarily obliged to lodge further grievances about each subsequent instance of such behaviour. Appeal allowed.

Royal Bank of Scotland PLC v McClelland UKEAT/0096/10
Appeal against decision of the ET that a sex discrimination should proceed to a full hearing, the respondent contending that the claim was out of time. The claimant argued that what happened during the grievance procedure was a continuance of the discriminatory treatment of which she was complaining. The Tribunal concluded that the claim for sex discrimination should proceed to a hearing before a full Tribunal which would hear the evidence and would decide whether the way the grievance procedure was conducted was part of a continuing act. If it was not, then the Tribunal would have to decide whether it would be just and equitable to assume jurisdiction. If it did, it would consider the substance of the case. The EAT upheld this ruling saying that the Employment Judge cannot be said to have approached the question in an erroneous way in law, nor was his conclusion either perverse or evidence of a misdirection of law.

Yusuf Dogan v London Borough of Greenwich UKEAT 0525 09
Appeal against decision that the claimant had been fairly dismissed. Following an investigation the claimant was dismissed, an internal appeal arranged 6 months after the dismissal. The claimant refused to attend the appeal hearing, saying that the unreasonable delay already rendered his dismissal automatically unfair. Whilst the ET ruled that the delay was unreasonable the statutory dispute procedure had been completed, albeit without the claimant being present at the hearing. The EAT upheld the ET's decision.
