Mr G Spittal v Bilton and District Royal British Legion Club: 1801182/2020
JUDGMENT
The complaint that the Claimant was unfairly dismissed is struck out.REASONS
[1]The Claimant complains of unfair dismissal.[2]Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a Claimant to have not less than two years’ service to make an unfair dismissal complaint.[3]The Claimant was employed by the respondent for less than two years[4]Therefore, unless one of the exceptions applies, the Claimant is not entitled to bring such a complaint.[5]The Claimant has failed to give an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out. Having health and safety responsibilities is not an exception. The Claimant does not say that he was dismissed for raising health and safety concerns.[6]Accordingly, the complaint of unfair dismissal is struck out. It is not clear if the claim includes other complaints. The Claimant has been ordered to provide further information about that.
