Employment Law is never quite as cut and dried as people think and often things only become clear once someone has actually gone to an employment tribunal, but as most cases get settled out of court people think such and such must be right because they paid up, when often it’s just easier to pay them off and get shut. Allardyce as just walked away with an alleged £1 million from his employer did his employer do anything wrong or need to pay anything?
It is quite feasible that BB contracted duties not only included playing but community and commercial work, if he has been disciplined by the club for perhaps let’s say playing the wrong tunes in the changing rooms, then they could say we are suspending you from that aspect of your duties however you will continue to work for the company in the other roles and are free to train elsewhere or on your own. Even if he wasn’t contracted to do other duties the company could still put him on other duties if they feel he is unable to fulfil his original duties, in the same way as a company who employs a delivery driver but he then gets band or ill health stops him from driving they could offer he a role in packing, rather than sack him for not fulfilling his contracted duties, he could of course if he didn’t want to do those duties resign, but most take up the new role at least until they find alternative employment.
