    Replay - Top 5 SOSR dismissals

    This is a replay version of an episode originally published in July 2019.  Please note that any law discussed in the episode may be out of date.SOSR is like a classic car. It can work well but only in the right conditions. An employer must have a fair reason to dismiss an employee.When other avenues are exhausted, employers can sort to SOSR - which stands for ‘some other substantial reason’. Rather unhelpfully, there is no definition or guidance about its meaning. It must be 'substantial', which can include anything that is not frivolous or insignificant.In this episode of Employment Law Matters, Daniel Barnett talks about the top five SOSR dismissals and why lawyers use that phrase, and looks at in which situations the use of SOSR can prove most useful.🎁 FREE STUFFEmployment law updates – www.danielbarnett.com        My YouTube channel - www.youtubelegal.co.ukAsk a question - www.danielbarnett.com/podcastquestion💎 PRODUCTS, MEMBERSHIPS AND COURSESJoin the HR Inner Circle – www.hrinnercircle.co.ukHarassment Pack - https://danielbarnett.com/harassment/HR Platinum Policy Package 2024 – www.polices2024.comThe Virtual Employment Law Academy – https://danielbarnett.com/vela/Ultimate Employment Law 2024 - https://danielbarnett.com/ultimate2024/Employment Tribunal Compensation course - https://courses.virtualemploymentlawacademy.com/p/employment-tribunalOwn-branded email updates for solicitors - www.employmentlawbulletins.com📚 BOOKSMy books include the Employment Law Handbook, Resolving Grievances and Computer and Social Media Misuse (see all books).🌞 WHO AM I:I'm Daniel Barnett, an employment law and HR barrister.  I advise and represent clients in employment tribunal litigation.
