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

Re: Terminology

According to the quoted email, that's what she described it as - she described a perceived threat to get rid of her if she didn't take it as blackmail.

"Simon Mayall stated that he "couldn't have me escalating issues to you", and if I didn't take the £10k offer then I would be managed [presumably out] via my sick records.

Is that not bribery to keep my mouth shut and blackmail to take the offer?"

The two things seem to have become confuzzled by the time it reached the court, AFAICS.
