Events Employment

Freeths Employment team are hosting a range of webinars celebrating significant employment law anniversaries, this is the second of three webinars in which we will cover whistleblowing in the current landscape.

Date: Thursday 22nd June 2023
Time: 10am – 11am

On the 22nd anniversary of the EAT’s decision in Parkins v Sodexho, in which the EAT held that an employee complaining about a breach of their own contract of employment could be a whistleblower, we will discuss the current landscape in relation to whistleblowing claims, including:

• Anonymous whistleblowers
• Whistleblowing policies
• Rights of the accused – when are they entitled to know the detail of the complaints and the identity of their accusers and does data protection law assist them to find out?
• The concept of separability – separating the fact of the disclosure from the manner of the disclosure
• What is “bad faith”?

If you have any queries regarding the webinar, please get in touch with Tom Williams.
