In 1995, the Labour Court recommended £500 compensation and a satisfactory reference for a warehouse manager dismissed by Evora Manufacturing. The recommendation was signed on 13 November 1995. The worker said management's attitude changed after his job became permanent. Evora Manufacturing said a serious business downturn forced it to dismiss him and three other workers. The Court said the worker appeared to be caught up in circumstances beyond his control and found the dismissal had been handled very badly. It recommended compensation and a reference explaining the downturn and that his performance had been satisfactory.
