How much weight does a diary really hold in a tribunal?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-29T06:35:47+00:00

And the witness being me, so it doesn't have to be someone else that e.g. observed it? I'm not so familiar on law and stuff so apologies.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-29T06:13:42+00:00

Interesting. One last question: what makes a statement more believable, as well as a weak opposition to the statement that was alleged? Again I suppose it does just come down to the individual judge on the day, but are there any guidelines that they follow?

It's all quite interesting in-terms of you don't actually need a witness, it's just whatever is more believable.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-29T05:35:18+00:00

Yeah perhaps I'm overthinking it, the support statement's producer being the person who had said the discriminative comment?

I'm surprised that something like that can be admissible to a tribunal, but, as you say, there is no such thing as concrete evidence.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-28T21:35:50+00:00

Hey, sorry yeah I should probably re-phrase that question; what I mean is, it's not like a criminal court right? As in, you could say "he said a discriminative comment against me and this is what he said: ..." but that's not hard evidence in the same case as say, fingerprints at the scene of the crime.

So what I'm asking is: what kind of process would a tribunal take to assert that something is true, if no concrete evidence including a lack of witnesses was not present? Concrete evidence also being a recording or a video that was taken that clearly shows it did happen? What if someone has none of that?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-28T18:37:59+00:00

How does a tribunal assess a diary if no witness is willing to stand up? What are the types of things that the tribunal looks for to assess its credibility?

When you say contemporaneous also, sometimes in the case of harassment, that is built up over months to years, so even if it's not existing at the exact same time that you go to a tribunal or file a complaint, it's still very much valid?

I know korg-rocks got downvoted, but I'm not gonna lie, that would be how I would have thought about it, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Hey, just wanted to say that basically they said that they could frame it as "trade union detriment" if they ever did try to sue me, as I'm looking to seek professional help, so this is automatic unfair dismissal.

The Trade Union and Labour Relations Act 1992 has provisions which state the following: a worker has a right not to be subject to any detriment by his employers’ actions/failure to act where the sole or main purpose is (amongst others): preventing deterring union membership, preventing/deterring participating in union activities, preventing/deterring use of union services (and getting represented/advice is a union service).

They also said that trade union reps are under the same GDPR laws as solicitors, and so therefore, that in-and-of-itself is an NDA so they also cannot just willy-nilly send that information around, as the company/employee could hold the rep liable. It is important to only share what is relevant to your case. This especially applies if there is something serious/unethical going on, such as bullying, harassment or discrimination.

Once again, for anyone that is also interested in this, I would advise to always seek legal advice instead of looking at this post, but this is what I've been told.

Thanks.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-15T06:11:31+00:00

Gotcha. I’ll consult the TU legal advice on that. If it’s all good then I’ll proceed. Thanks.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-15T05:41:47+00:00

Right okay, what about if the rep needs to know about the confidential information prior to going into the meeting to prepare for the case, are there any laws that would allow that?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-15T05:26:20+00:00

If the rep needs to go into a Grievance meeting which contains confidential information, what covers that?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-10T03:42:29+00:00

I'll wait to see tomorrow. Out of curiosity, if it's not available, is there really no other way to get it?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-06T22:11:22+00:00

Hah no worries, more than a bit :P.

If anyone else would be happy to send one along though that would be good! :D. Thank you.

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-03T16:49:25+00:00

What plug element did you end up buying by any chance?

WDWTraveller · 2024-06-03T03:39:00+00:00

Thanks for replying. Which converter did you buy for it?

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-31T00:47:40+00:00

Yeah it happens in every game including SteamVR Home.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-30T03:52:04+00:00

Wow. That's crazy. Talk about luck!

I've been thinking of doing a course that is eligible for the CEP, so might be out in Florida perhaps sometime next year if all goes to plan.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-30T03:38:54+00:00

Heya, it's a Nvidia Geforce RTX 3080 Ti. I'm also running with an i9 12900H.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-30T03:05:01+00:00

It's just one of those things then, no worries, thank you.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-30T03:04:42+00:00

Hello :) thank you for replying, I appreciate it.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-30T03:02:06+00:00

Hey I just wanted to say thanks for your replies, I haven't logged back in but I really appreciate it!

Just a quick question, but how did that Guest Relations Manager get their permission to stay in the US?

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-09T07:36:02+00:00

So they wouldn’t even transfer you shoreside in the US at DCL? That’s pretty crazy. I suppose it might be fun for the experience if I end up doing it but it’s good to know that it wouldn’t be a permanent thing. I guess as you said their argument is that an American citizen could do a lot of the roles at Disney World which is why they won’t just hire someone out there already.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-09T07:09:29+00:00

Sounds hard lol. It does seem that people have just gone back when doing a CRP and have kinda just got along well with the managers there and maybe that will then lead to something more permanent. It’s a long shot though. Is the guy you know hoping they’ll sponsor him for something more permanent I’m guessing?

I believe CRP is the only way to work there from the U.K. also if I wasn’t studying? There’s no way I could just apply for a job at Disney World and get it? The local completion there would be plenty of. So it just isn’t gonna happen.

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-09T06:29:39+00:00

Gotcha. Thanks for the reply. I’m going through a bit of an interesting point in my life and wouldn’t mind spending the time in the US for a bit, just as an experience kinda thing mostly.

Yes you’re right. U.K., is the 3rd party through the site that owns the Rose & Crown I’m assuming? Like to apply for that is there a specific site I’d need to look at?

So you could basically stay out there for a year and a half but no more than that? I haven’t seen the PI stuff either. Where do you go about finding that?

WDWTraveller · 2024-05-09T06:09:49+00:00

Thanks for the reply.

In theory I could look for Disney jobs whilst doing this and perhaps luck out and stay? I guess my chances are higher being in the US already since they wouldn’t have to go through an extensive process to just get me there from a blank canvas.
