Parkwood Leisure Ltd v Alemo-Herron and others [2010] EWCA Civ 24 CA

transfer of undertakings | collective agreements | pay increase after transfer

The Court of Appeal has restored an employment tribunal decision that a transferee was not bound by the terms of a pay increase made under a collective agreement that was incorporated into the contracts before the transfer, where the increase was made under an agreement reached after the transfer in which the transferee played no part.

The employees were originally employed by the London Borough of Lewisham.
