A well-known Yorkshire businessman and former Tory association chairman was rightfully dismissed for gross misconduct, a tribunal has ruled
Dr Aldiss had claimed during the proceedings that the money had been provided to the company on the basis that he was a “business angel” who was both helping the gym firm and securing the future use of services from the company for Eville & Jones staff. However, Body Transformation Gym was dissolved in January 2020 before any services were delivered to Eville & Jones.
“As such, the first respondent was contractually entitled to dismiss the claimant without notice and his wrongful dismissal complaint does not succeed.”Dr Aldiss said today: “As regards the £30,000 which I provided as a support facility for BTG I feel much aggrieved by the inference that I somehow gained from this transaction.”“I sent £30,000 of my own money earned through a bonus arrangement to a company which was undergoing financial hardship.
A spokesperson for Eville & Jones said the tribunal’s ruling validated the decision to dismiss Dr Aldiss and the process that was followed beforehand. The ruling said he had been diagnosed with a bipolar condition in August 2019 and the panel accepted his evidence that it could make him “erratic, antisocial and unpredictable”.
Dr Aldiss’s lawyer suggested that the situation meant she could not be independent in the matter but the tribunal accepted her evidence that she had acted with integrity and independence in the matter and conducted the inquiry with “rigour”.
