“How could he lawfully Install a Flow Meter and Comply Alone?” The Missing Context The Appeal Officer’s Conclusion Depended Upon The Instructions Being Both: ✅ Lawful, and ✅ Reasonable. But if the Contemporaneous HSE context was Removed from the Minutes and later replaced with simplified Damming HR wording, then the foundation of the accusation itself becomes questionable. Because an instruction requiring a Construction Manager to: enter confined spaces alone, undertake high-risk sewage infrastructure work without support, proceed without permits or RAMS, and expose himself to potentially fatal hazards, cannot automatically be characterised as a “Lawful and Reasonable Instruction” simply because management later described it that way. Especially where: ✅ The Physical Conditions, ✅ The Project Documentation, ✅ and the CDM Obligations Point in the Opposite Direction. Rewritten Minutes, Rewritten Narrative The Financial Narrative Built Around It At the same time the employee was being accused of refusing “reasonable instructions,” the financial records were also being reconstructed. Without Disclosing An Audit Trail For Dual Ledgers of Over Half a Million Pounds Plus. Witness Statement. The Risk Director, Appeal Officer Wrote: “Victim was an experienced Construction Manager paid over £50,000 a year and his behaviour had led to wasted costs for the business… As a business we are simply not in a position to tolerate Victim behaviour.” Project-Level Contradictions Essendon SPS — Project Total The employer already possessed contemporaneous project expenditure showing: ✅ Essendon SPS: £127,922.88 ✅ Dorchester STW: £107,670.53 Yet later records introduced: ❌ retrospective £35k “budgets,” ❌ inflated totals, ❌ duplicate charges, ❌ rewritten payroll histories, ❌ and alleged losses of £278k–£348k+. The accusation of poor performance was therefore tied directly to a financial narrative that itself appears disputed within the employer’s own records. Project-Level Contradictions Essendon SPS — Project Total ✅ Authentic Contemporaneous position (Section 4): £127,922.88 ❌ Later reconstructed Section 20 position: Backdated 11 Months £35,000+ “original budget” → £172,000 alleged cost position ❌ Manufactured narrative: £44,077+ “excess” created through retrospective comparison Dorchester STW — Project Total ✅ Authentic contemporaneous position (Section 4): £107,670.53 ❌ Later reconstructed Section 20 position: Backdated 11 Months £35,000+ “original budget” → £176,441.43 alleged cost position ❌ Manufactured narrative: £68,770.90 alleged “overspend” https://lnkd.in/ebAWa7Zw
