£10k offer to leave firm ASAP is not blackmail, Capita told by judge

Re: Not Blackmail?

Probably because those people get a decent offer that's worthwhile and they take it and run. Reading through the Judgment it amounted to 6 months NET pay which isn't bad.

It's more commonplace in American companies but I have definitely seen it happen a few times.

Again reading through the Judgement it seems that they ruled she was unfairly dismissed because of the method of dismissal and its procedures rather than the reason and this, therefore, decreased the payout.

So the claimant is appealing on that.
