Payments on Termination - Bonus - Implied Term - Employment Contract - Summary Judgment - Transfer of Undertaking
This case involved a request of a summary judgment on a claim by an employee for payment of a bonus on termination. The bonus was not covered in the employment contract or employment policy. However, there was a question if there was an implied contract term. The claimant had been paid the bonus for several years although he had recently had a change of employment contract and named employer.
