Dear Comunity
My sister is in the process of grievance against a potential employer who revoked an unconditional job offer after she accepted it.
My first questions if anyone can assist are these:
Her current HR provided a truncated list of sickness leave which specifically highlights a high portion of sickness over a 2 year period (mostly under two main periods) but did not include her previous 3 years history which would highlight this as the exception rather than the rule.
My sister has been diagnosed with Anxiety and depression since she was 16. The largest period of sickness was due to a flare-up of her Anxiety which triggered a flare-up of pain which has since been diagnosed as fibromyalgia.
Does this count as her current employer giving a bad reference?
I know this would come under Libel, but would it be actionable under the Employment Tribunal?
Would this be a breach of contract or a breach of the duties of care supplying deliberately misleading information?
Secondly, If the offer email subject line states unconditional offer, the letter filename states unconditional offer and the first paragraph of the letter states unconditional offer, can they rescind the offer by burying conditions within the T&C of the unconditional offer, or would the fact they have portrait the offer as unconditional give my sister the usual legal protections offered under a conditional offer being accepted?
Thanks in advance
