Case Summary

The tribunal found that the claimant was unfairly dismissed by Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. However, the tribunal determined that the claimant caused or contributed to the dismissal by blameworthy conduct and reduced both the basic award and compensatory award by 100%. The breach of contract claim relating to notice pay was dismissed as not well-founded.

Why this outcome?

Dismissal found fair

The tribunal found the dismissal unfair, but because the claimant caused or contributed to the dismissal by blameworthy conduct, it was just and equitable to reduce both the basic award and compensatory award by 100%, resulting in no financial compensation. The breach of contract claim relating to notice pay was not established.
