Employer's Honest Mistake Cannot be a Fundamental Breach
Case in Point:
Cantor Fitzgerald International v Callaghan and ors, [1999] ICR 639, CA (and [1999] IRLR 234) is a famous authority to the employment hack but easily forgotten when looking for a case where the employee is looking to claim constructive dismissal on the basis that the employer has not paid them (albeit accidentally)
The ET will always look at the circumstances of the case and it is likely that the employer would only become prone to a finding of fundamental breach and thus constructive dismissal if the accident repeated itself. This case can be used as an authority to protect the employer when accidents has happened. Find it for free on the BAillie website!
