Unfair dismissal award
A man who was unfairly dismissed from his job has been awarded £18,450 in compensation. He was called into his manager’s office
and told that his work was no longer good enough. He was immediately ordered to clear his desk and hand over the company car
keys. He had received no prior warning that his employer had any issues with his work, and indeed he had been given a very
positive appraisal just two months before he was unfairly dismissed.
