An employer should also be particularly wary of employees recording disciplinary or grievance hearings without their knowledge. The Employment Tribunal has previously in certain circumstances permitted these recordings, such as where the Employer is a public body. Employers should take preventative measures by amending Employment Contracts to explicitly exclude employees from recording hearings and ensure the decision making body retains its confidential notes of the discussions, but which are not disclosed unless matters proceed to a hearing. An Employment Tribunal would not want to hinder open discussion by the decision maker for fear of being recorded, but it has happened

They can use a public interest arguement - on the basis that if they went through proper channels, all they'd get would be spin, polish and bullsh*t ( look at Panorama, the official bit in Croyden (IIRC?) could almost have been printed verbatim in the Courier, it was only dodging official channels that they gave a more realistic sight of a postman's day.
