Dismissals for Some Other Substantial Reason - Implications & Risks Explored

Introduction

Delivered by expert employment lawyer Kate Shepherd, this virtual classroom seminar will examine unusual dismissals that fall into the fair dismissal category of ‘some other substantial reason’.

Consideration will be given to current case law decisions and terminations out of the ordinary, that do not fit within the usual categories of conduct, capability or redundancy.
