no-one ever looks at ET judgments when looking for jobsPajaro said:
No, sometimes the employer wants to get rid of someone as they are too good at their job!Comms69 said:There's 2 options here:
1: Your daughter isnt good at her job, therefore not valued and they're looking for a reason to get rid of her
2: the employer isnt a good employer, and for whatever reason believes employee B, and is looking to get rid of your daughter
In both cases the key factor needs to be, is this worth my time and effort and losing a reference
It is because that person disturbs the "balance" in the office.
I think as long as the employer does not have enough concrete evidence to dismiss the daughter, the employer really won't dare do it since the employee has been there for more than 2 years. Most employers are scared of the damage to their reputation an employment tribunal may cause0 -

Unless the employer is a local (or national) celebrity or the case involves something particularly newsworthy or salacious, it is rare to see even a local news reporter present at an ET hearing.
Generally that suits the claimant, even if they win, as many potential future employers regard those who have brought ET claims as troublemakers and best avoided. That is sad if they had a just case but it can often be what happens.1
