Collins v John Ansell & Partners Ltd EAT/124/99

Transfer of undertakings: Tribunal failed to consider whether dismissal was transfer related

Date:

1 June 2000

In Collins v John Ansell & Partners Ltd, the EAT holds that an employment tribunal had failed to consider whether an employee's constructive dismissal was for a reason connected with the transfer of the business in which she worked, and thus whether it was prima facie automatically unfair by virtue of reg. 8(1) of the Transfer of Undertakings Regulations.
