SOSR is like a classic car. It can work well but only in the right conditions.
An employer must have a fair reason to dismiss an employee.
When other avenues are exhausted, employers can sort to SOSR - which stands for ‘some other substantial reason’. Rather unhelpfully, ...
The Court of Appeal has just handed down the important decision of Higgs v Farmor’s School, dealing with the circumstances when an employer can (or cannot) dismiss an employee for expressing gender critical views. I recorded a 45 minute discussion about the ramifications of this case for employers, exclusively for members of the HR Inner Circle. Here are the first few minutes of that recording for podcast listeners.

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
