Outside of the partnership, the firm is asking all staff to take two weeks»
unpaid leave at some point between June and the end of September - equating to a pay cut of around 5 %.
The Court of Appeal ruled that the employer's decision to put the employee on an
unpaid leave of absence in August 2010 was not an infringement of his rights because,
at that time, the employer had accommodated the employee to the
point of undue hardship.
