Constructive Dismissal – Breach of Contract cannot be ‘cured’ Print E-mail
Monday, 08 March 2010

In a recent case (Buckland v Bournemouth University 2010) it was held that if an employer commits a fundamental breach of contract

which could warrant a constructive dismissal then if the problem is put right before the employee leaves, it doesn’t ‘cure’ the problem and a claim for constructive dismissal can still be made.
