Watch Out if… You Have an Employee Who Has Raised Multiple Discrimination Grievances

Most employers will have had at least one employee who is convinced he is being discriminated against and brings grievance after grievance, regarding every decision that goes against him as yet another act of discrimination. If the allegations are unfounded you may get to the stage where you think “enough is enough” and simply dismiss him, but the EAT’s recent decision in Woodhouse v West North West Homes (Leeds) Ltd should make employers stop and think.
