Case report round-up: Second notice of dismissal constituted a new notice and not a unilateral variation of the first

Second notice of dismissal constituted a new notice and not a unilateral variation of the first In Parker Rhodes Hickmotts Solicitors v Harvey EAT/0455/11, the EAT held that the employer's second notice of dismissal to a redundant employee constituted a new notice rather than a unilateral variation of the first. The second notice brought forward the effective date of termination, with the result that the employee did not have the required one year's service to claim unfair dismissal. (Personnel Today)
