  GAB Robins (UK) Ltd v Triggs [2007] IRLR 857 EAT (1 other report)

  • Constructive dismissal: Mishandling of grievance procedure and post-dismissal losses

    Date:

    2 October 2007

    In GAB Robins (UK) Ltd v Triggs EAT/0111/07, the EAT held that an employer's mishandling of its grievance procedure is not subject to a "range of reasonable responses" test where it is relied on only as the "last straw" in a constructive dismissal case. Where illness caused by breach of mutual trust and confidence culminating in constructive dismissal arises prior to the date of dismissal, post-dismissal loss of earnings due to continuing incapacity are recoverable in an unfair dismissal action.
