'Should've intervened' | Firefighter who failed to act on workplace clash loses unfair dismissal claim

A long-serving firefighter, who resigned midway through a disciplinary process that found he failed to intervene in an inappropriate workplace incident, was not unfairly dismissed - an employment tribunal has ruled.

Mr S Bailey, who joined the service in 1996 and worked as Watch Manager B at Avonmouth Fire Station, resigned in September 2023 after receiving a final written warning and being moved from his operational duties.
