UK Employment Update - February 2012
7 February 2012
Welcome to the February edition of the UK Employment Update which provides a round-up of recent employment law developments.
This Update reviews the increase in the qualifying period of employment required to claim unfair dismissal, what test an Employment Tribunal will apply when considering whether a redundant employee has unreasonably refused alternative employment and when an employer will be vicariously liable for violent employees. In addition we consider a few practical employment issues that the Olympics may throw up.
