________________________________________________________________

RESPONDENT’S SKELETON ARGUMENT

For Preliminary Hearing on 7 November 2023 at 10am

________________________________________________________________

1. This Skeleton Argument is intended primarily to introduce the factual background and legal

issues applicable to the question for determination at this Preliminary Hearing, namely:

“was the unfair dismissal complaint presented outside the time limits in sections 111(2)(a)

& (b) of the Employment Rights Act 1996 and if so should it be dismissed on the basis that

the Tribunal has no jurisdiction to hear it?” (see Notice of Hearing, 24 July 2023 at [44]).

2. R has also made an application for strike out or deposit orders on the basis that the claim is

out of time, but R does not pursue this. Instead, R simply invites the Tribunal to dismiss the

claim on the basis that it was presented out of time.

Chronology

3. The following is a brief chronology of C’s claim:

a. C began relevant employment with R on 2 or 3 January 2017 [7], [49] as a Team

Coach;

b. In 2018 C commenced a temporary secondment with R’s Customer Experience (please note date incorrect - it was approximately March/April 2017).

Harassment in the work place

Unfair Shifts October 2023 offered 2 shifts for one month.

Tax back this month. (companies know about this) It was on purpose, I was one of the top performers and constant positive feedback by guests to validate this. Rachel signed off the shifts. Crying out for staff October half term week.

 

Prior to this approximately 4 shifts per week. Weekend shifts.

 

Felt like torture in the Games section, noise level - came out of work - Penetrating headaches, very sick for approximately 6 weeks, bought on panic attacks.

​

Perhaps a  coincidence that the dyslexic man subletting the house in Brookland's had verbally assaulted me in September, distressed, reached out to Graham at Mercedes- Benz world as a witness - maybe the brand no longer wanted me? Made me sick

​

(During 2023 five moves - 

Spare rooms to be close to place of work at Mercedes-Benz World.

Disruption on trains (government) and car failed mot.

Walton - bungalow - South African couple Angela and Greg - rent per week £ - 

3 weeks notice as friends were coming to stay to sit exams - started off by making friends, get into my business then Greg became unkind - crossed boundaries.

 

Walton - Lovely victorian house - friendly girls - care workers from Kenya - not actually care workers but trained in England, better life government scheme - private house, car etc - landlord lived round the corner...not aloud a cat and one of the care worker friends moved in to my room 

 

Weybridge - 

 

Brooklands - 

 

Walton - 

Behind the scenes - assaulted by a dyslexic brickie, moved to a crappy house in Walton to remain close to work - failed to tell me the daughter was special needs - thought it was fun to keep me awake by flashing Christmas lights outside the front room window to keep me awake. Playing loud computer games and other things above my head. I was the only one going out to work... pushed me out so they could have there Christmas dinner in my bedroom - they did give me notice and paid me the additional rent days back - paid for a hotel over Christmas.

​

December 2023 as close to death as I have ever felt, body fighting, bed ridden with what I believe to be Norovirus - ibuprofen and somehow fought it off, one day sick from M&S and scheduled days off - somehow found the strength to carry on "It was a case of having to"

Champneys - Forest Mere

Assaulted by incompetent Operations Manager (not really an ops manager just given the title - not what you know but who you know)

Panic attack, pushed out

​Eastern European - Paulius

Toxic culture - headless chickens, behavior by some of the staff disgraceful, disrespectful and spiteful - Ellie...

​

Pushed me out of staff accommodation and made homeless - which by the way had a dodgy gas boiler, naked flame, no hot water for weeks, filthy. They still took a deposit which is yet to be refunded for the pleasure. 

No monthly pay for the month of November as they took all rent monies from the day I moved into the filth pit.

2024 which left no money until January 2025. 

​

Bullied by the staff for not having a digital phone i phone or similar and for using my Nokia.

​

(During this time beginning of the year behind the scenes - Dad Sepsis - emergency unit hospital - nearly had leg cut off, followed by stroke) Sepsis bought out a very nasty side in my Dad - bullied. 

Stroke - became like a child and nice side came out.

Relocation to a small family run Hotel Bude - Cornwall.

"expensive"​

Job role = Weddings and Events coordinator, full time, salary

Acquisition - new owners took over a few days after I started - no mention of this in the interview...

​

Walked into a dump. had to clear up after the last supposed wedding coordinator , the daughter of the pub manager next door. 

Previous wedding coordinator made sick. 

​

I was not recruited to sort out other peoples mess. 

 

(A wedding coordinator is a professional who focuses on executing the logistical details of a wedding on the day of the event, ensuring everything runs smoothly and according to plan).

​

​​​​Await response from Hotel - Lin - NOT an Events Manager but Front of House?

 

CULTURE

​

Three Types of Grievances

• Individual grievance. One person grieves that a management action has violated their rights under the collective agreement

• Group grievance. A group grievance complains that management action has hurt a group of individuals in the same way. ...

• Policy or Union grievance.

​

If the grievance is ignored or only considered very superficially, this can give the employee the option to resign and claim constructive unfair dismissal. In most cases, the employee needs two years' service for this.​

​

CRUEL = willfully causing pain or suffering to others, or

feeling no concern about it. Spoil or ruin (an opportunity or a chance of success).​​

Brand damage / damages
