Goode v Marks & Spencer plc EAT/0442/09 (1 other report)
whistleblowing | protected disclosures | unfair dismissal
The Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) has held that where a disclosure is merely an expression of opinion that fails to show that a legal obligation has been or is likely to be breached, it cannot amount to a protected or qualifying disclosure for the purposes of the whistleblowing legislation.
The claimant, Mr Goode, was employed by Marks & Spencer as a database manager.
