More Clarification Regarding Statutory Dismissal Procedure
by Philip
The EAT have handed down an important decision regarding the Statutory Dismissal Procedure. Read all about it here - YMCA v Stewart
The judgment confirms:
a letter inviting an employee to an initial investigatory meeting can amount to a Step 1 letter even though it was sent before the investigatory meeting rather then before the disciplinary meeting.
the decision to dismiss can legitimately be communicated during the Step 2 meeting (but note the outcome must not be pre-judged so a decision must not be made until all evidence has been heard - i.e. at the end of the meeting!)
