Health and Safety Law 2024 (October 2024)
Under Section 100 of the Act, it is automatically unfair to dismiss employees or safety reps who withdraw to a place of safety or take other appropriate steps to protect their own safety or that of others because they reasonably fear they are in serious and imminent danger. Chapter 4 sets out examples of employment tribunal decisions relating to this right.
