An employment judge has now ruled he should have been offered alternative roles or at least an opportunity to discuss his case with group chief operating officer Luke Farajallah.
...
The judge said that Mr Guest had never been given the opportunity to meet Mr Farajallah, who made the decision to sack him.
He noted: "It is a basic principle of natural justice and of fairness that an employee should have the chance to address the relevant decision-maker. Here, the claimant had no such opportunity."
...
Upholding his claim, he said that had Flybe followed the correct procedure there was a two thirds chance they would have sacked him fairly.
Anyone successfully overcome a similar condition?

He was fine for 20 years but only in the last 10 years has the condition developed. He has tried hypnotherapy, taken medication and even seen a psychologist but eventually had to give up a brilliant job as a chartered accountant with one of the big 4 accountancy firms because his job required him to drive to clients. The odd thing is he can drive on non duel carriageways providing he has a passenger alongside. It sounds ridiculous but these fears are very real and can impact hugely on a person's life.
