Re-engagement after Unfair Dismissal

Re-engagement after Unfair Dismissal

Where the old job has ceased to exist, the Tribunal can order that the employer gives the employee a different job. Again, the Tribunal will order compensation for lost wages over the period before re-engagement. The Tribunal must consider the same criteria as for reinstatement.

Additional awards

An additional award is awarded when the employer unreasonably refuses to comply with an order for reinstatement or re-engagement. By s.117 ERA 1996, an award of 26-52 weeks’ gross pay can be awarded.
