Where the claimant felt she was constructively dismissed by the respondent company. Having considered all the evidence in the case the Tribunal determined that “the claimant did act reasonably. She tried to resolve the issue with the respondent prior to resigning, but the respondent failed to engage in a meaningful way”.
