Hi there
This week, we are completing our look at procedurally unfair dismissals, to look at the other side of the dismissal, where the conduct of your employer might have been procedurally wrong, making your dismissal unfair. But, where the tribunal still thinks you have some responsibility for your own dismissal, and you should be held accountable for that responsibility.
This is called contributory fault and the tribunal will be looking at whether you contributed to your own dismissal, which led to your unfair dismissal.
In this episode, we go through the definition of ‘contributory fault’ and we look at the original legal precedent case, that put ‘contributory fault’ onto the statute books.
You can find all our support links at the bottom of the show notes where you’re listening to this week’s episode… and remember you can help us by sharing our podcast information with your friends and colleagues.
Bye for now.
