Unfair dismissal - a legal guide for union reps (November 2014)

Chapter 5

Blacklisting

[ch 5: page 60]

It is automatically unfair to dismiss an employee where the main reason relates to use of information from a blacklist. Anti-union blacklists are outlawed under the Employment Relations Act 1999 (Blacklists) Regulations 2010 (Section 104F, ERA 96). For more information see LRD’s annual employment law guide Law at Work (www.lrdpublications.org.uk/publications.php?pub=BK&iss=1723).
