Tribunal Hearings
The first steps in the legal challenge were made on 8 November 2002 when a Directions Hearing was held at the Employment Tribunal Offices in Manchester.
Because of the complex nature and number of claims submitted, the tribunal is expected to run for 15 days between the 8th and 26th September 2003.
The claims fall into several categories.
The Transport & General Workers Union are pursuing:
A Protective Award* for 590 Security Staff employed by Manchester Airport Plc.
15 claims for Unfair dismissal
15 claims for Breach of Contract
13 claims for Unlawful deductions
11 claims for Sex discrimination
3 claims for Trade Union Activities
*Section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 outlines the legal duty on an employer to consult. Failure to comply with these requirements can be challanged under a protective award
Hope to see the Airport directors there !
