Found this via google alerts - it's just been released

http://www.emplaw.co.uk/news/summaries/396879794677.htm

This is the "might of Royal Fail " to try and get the DUM & Area out of a corner - Business Lawyers to fight a ill man who appears to have gone to and got represented by the local Citizen's Advice Bureau

http://www.eversheds.com/uk/home/global/index.page?

It seems that the case was taken to Tribunal but it got stopped because the poor b***er hadn't gone through RM Grievance Procedure ( WTF ? )

so it went to appeal . RM's lawyers tried to get the appeal stopped as though his form was submitted on time , he made a DDA case against Royal Fail out of time .

The Judge rightly declared the original Tribunal was handled badly and Royal Mail's "case" was dismissed as a complete nitpicking , nonsense , the don't give ATOS reports are "interesting" and the snotty ,high - handed arrogant attitude of RM and the DUM in particular beggars belief .

If that guy had been off an Ethnic minority - they'd have found him cotton uniform and there would be all this BS from RM about how Right On & PC RM are parrotted out .

Mart.

I was annoyed at the way the DUM tried to sidestep the DDA issue - to be fair to the ATOS MO , you can see he didn't want to be cited in a Tribunal , or have a ambulance chasing solicitor after him or complaint to the British Medical Council , RM wouldn't have given a flying one if that happened ? :lfo :cfo

I've seen this happen - we had a personnel manager saying to someone , let us sack you - you'll still get your benefits ! - WTF ?

- bet his skin condition was made worse by all this RM politics -

for standing up to RM ?

Employees should never give up because in most cases they usually end up winning at an employment tribunal. Always seek legal advice from a employment lawyer because they will tell you straight away whether you have a case or not (you can go and see a employment lawyer free for the first 30 minutes do not wait until you are dismissed by your employer, not many people know this and what he/she tells you in that 30 minutes could be valuable).
