Abstract
Abstract This chapter looks at the two main heads of compensation established by Norton Tool Co Ltd v Tewson[1973] All ER 183, which are immediate loss of earnings, i.e., loss of earnings between the date of dismissal and the date of the hearing, and future loss of earnings, i.e., compensation for any continuing loss after the hearing. Tribunals are thus expected ‘to glance both backward into the past and forward into the future ‘ (per Waite J in Thompson v Smiths (Harlow) Ltd EAT 952/83), but before considering how tribunals approach this task, it is necessary to examine what sums count as lost earnings for this purpose.
