Hi All.
I am currently looking for some advice with regards to an employment dispute, using ACAS as the go between, which had almost been resolved in favour of the employee.
Now here’s the problem...
A COT3 had been signed and a copy sent to the employer who has now decided to seek legal advice with regards to section 4a, the confidentiality section. This section states that the claimant (in this case ‘the employee’ must not discuss any outcome of settlement with any other person other than close family. This has 100% been followed by the claimant but the employer has come back stating several members of his staff have been informed by the claimant of the outcome.
We know is this absolute bull and they will have no evidence of this taking place.
ACAS have informed the claimant that they will try to resolve this with the employer to yet we have heard nothing.
Has anyone else come across this happening and has it been resolved/dealt with and what was the outcome?
Many thanks
