Professional footballer Rico Quitongo has secured a partial victory in his Employment Appeal Tribunal case against Airdrieonians Football Club. The EAT has overturned elements of the original tribunal's decision concerning victimisation and harassment related to a racism allegation.
The Court of Appeal has dismissed HSBC Bank’s appeal in a case involving alleged sex and race discrimination and victimisation. The court found the original tribunal’s explanation for refusing to extend time for the claims to be inadequate. The case will now return to a new tribunal.
The EAT has upheld a council's dismissal of a driver and rejected his claim for suffering detriment after whistleblowing. The tribunal ruled the whistleblowing claim was outside the time limit and the dismissal, due to long-term sickness absence, was fair.
