Employment Appeal Tribunal

Employment Appeal Tribunal (HHJ McMullen Q.C. presiding) in Opportunity Housing Trust Ltd v Harrison considered again the test to be applied when an employment tribunal is asked to recuse itself for apparent bias.

The case concerned comments made to a witness and then to counsel at the conclusion of the evidence but before submissions in a 5-day disability discrimination claim.

The case returns to the EAT in September 2009 for a further appeal and cross-appeal on issues of detriment, comparators and uplifts for non-compliance with the now repealed statutory grievance procedure. 
 
For more information contact David Callow counsel for the Appellant trust.

A copy of the judgment, will be available via chambers website upon publication.
