Shanahan v Unite the Union UKEAT/0411/09/DM
Appeal against decision by ET that the employer was in breach of its duty under section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 (“TULRA”) by failing to consult with the appropriate trade union representatives when proposing to make more than 20 employees redundant. The employer also challenged the ET ruling that they should make a 90 day protected award to each of the employees who had been made redundant. Appeal in relation to breach of duty failed; appeal against the protected award succeeded and remitted back to the ET.
