Case of the Month
11/2025
Flaw in surrounding circumstances
In the Alom v FCA case the EAT confirmed that flaws in surrounding circumstances – such as procedural imperfections or unpursued allegations – do not necessarily render a dismissal unfair if the key disciplinary allegations are fairly handled. However, employers are of course always advised to dot the I’s and cross the t’s and doing so my mean a threatened case goes away (because solicitors are not keen to agree conditional fees and may well advise the departed employee to leave it be).
