S2E10 - Whistleblowing: What is 'Public Interest'?

When can a complaint raised by an employee reasonably be considered to be in the 'public interest'?  That can make the difference over whether the complaint qualifies as a 'protected disclosure', and therefore whether all the employment rights associated with whistleblowing come into play.Employment Status book - http://go.danielbarnett.com/books/employmentstatusThis episode is supported by Beverly Hills Bakery, one of London's most established American bakeries, founded in Knightsbridge in 1990, offering a truly worldwide gift delivery service of gift baskets and gift tins filled with freshly baked, handmade mini muffins, cookies, brownies, cupcakes and cakes & pies. 🎁 FREE STUFFEmployment law updates – www.danielbarnett.com       My YouTube channel - www.youtubelegal.co.ukAsk a question - www.danielbarnett.com/podcastquestion💎 PRODUCTS, MEMBERSHIPS AND COURSESJoin the HR Inner Circle – www.hrinnercircle.co.ukHarassment Pack - https://danielbarnett.com/harassment/HR Platinum Policy Package 2024 – www.polices2024.comThe Virtual Employment Law Academy – www.virtualemploymentlawacademy.comUltimate Employment Law 2024 - https://danielbarnett.com/ultimate2024/Employment Tribunal Compensation course - https://courses.virtualemploymentlawacademy.com/p/employment-tribunalOwn-branded email updates for solicitors - www.employmentlawbulletins.com📚 BOOKSMy books include the Employment Law Handbook, Resolving Grievances and Computer and Social Media Misuse (see all books).🌞 WHO AM I:I'm Daniel Barnett, an employment law and HR barrister.  I advise and represent clients in employment tribunal litigation.

S2E8 - Employment Tribunal Decisions

Since 2017, all employment tribunal judgments have been published online by the government.  But there’s a growing concern that publication of judgments online may lead to employers searching up potential recruits, and then refusing to hire anyone who has brought a tribunal claim against  a previous employer – presumably on the grounds that they are presumed to be litigious.In this episode, I discuss this (and other) issues with three leading academics:Dr Alysia Blackham is an Associate Professor at Melbourne Law School and a former Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge.Jeremias Adams-Prassl is Professor of Law at Magdalen College, Oxford. He is particularly interested in the future of work and innovation, with recent books including Humans as a Service: the Promise and Perils of Work in the Gig Economy and Great Debates in EU Law.Abi Adams-Prassl is an associate professor in economics at New College, Oxford. She specialises in researching decision making within the consumer arena, and with Jeremias Adams-Prassl, developing frameworks for quantifying access to justice in the UK legal system.Twitter contact details:https://twitter.com/abicadamshttps://twitter.com/AlysiaBlackhamhttps://twitter.com/JeremiasPrasslThe research papers:by Jeremias and Abiby Alyssia💎 PRODUCTS, MEMBERSHIPS AND COURSESJoin the HR Inner Circle – www.hrinnercircle.co.ukHarassment Pack - https://danielbarnett.com/harassment/HR Platinum Policy Package 2024 – www.polices2024.comThe Virtual Employment Law Academy – www.virtualemploymentlawacademy.comUltimate Employment Law 2024 - https://danielbarnett.com/ultimate2024/🌞 WHO AM I:I'm Daniel Barnett, an employment law and HR barrister.  I advise and represent clients in employment tribunal litigation.
