Lawful dismissal on medical grounds
8 August 2018
The Employment Court has confirmed the core principles to follow in situations where employers are seeking to end an employment relationship on medical grounds. In Lyttleton Port Company v Arthurs 2018, Mr Arthurs was an employee cargo handler of the company. He suffered PTSD as a result of witnessing a fatal workplace accident in 2008 and then having a friend and colleague become involved in a second fatal workplace accident in 2014. He took sick leave in December 2014 using a series of medical certificates, and during this time suffered a non-workplace shoulder injury. In July 2015, medical information from his doctor as well as a further medical specialist evaluation obtained by the company indicated no clear recovery time and the possibility that he might never recover. In December 2015 the company terminated his employment on the basis of medical incapacity and unlikelihood of a return to work in the foreseeable future.

A very personalised future
12 July 2018
Personal information is collected every time we use a loyalty card, shop online, click on a news of sports article or sign up to an online service, with the information around our preferences, choices and consumer habits all collected by myriad of companies.
There is no doubt this intelligence is highly valuable to companies - valuable to those wishing to sell us goods and services, valuable to those looking to predict our future transactions or valuable to those wanting to personalise experiences for us, based on the things we like most, while not bothering us with products or services we have no or little interest in.
Creating calm after a storm
5 July 2018
Crisis management is a critical consideration in most organisations. By definition, a crisis in this sense is anything that may threaten operations and have a negative outcome if not addressed appropriately.
Failure to do so has almost instant dire consequences - reputational damage, harm to stake holders and plunging share prices. In the long term, a serious case of crisis mismanagement could end an organisation's existence.
