Claimant v Ramsay Health Care UK Operations Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the claimant's complaint of constructive unfair dismissal was not well founded. The judgment provides no detailed reasons in this summary document, but the claim was dismissed on its merits after a two-day hearing.
Facts
Mr Chong brought a claim of constructive unfair dismissal against his employer, Ramsay Health Care UK Operations Limited, a healthcare provider. The case was heard over two days via video conference. The claimant represented himself while the respondent was represented by a solicitor.
Decision
Employment Judge Lambert dismissed the constructive unfair dismissal claim, finding it not well founded. No written reasons were provided with this judgment, and the claim was unsuccessful after a full merits hearing.
Practical note
This judgment demonstrates that constructive dismissal claims require the claimant to prove a fundamental breach of contract by the employer, and self-represented claimants face challenges in meeting this burden against legally represented employers.
