Relation To Constructive Dismissal
A wrongful dismissal can be actual or constructive, but a constructive dismissal is almost certain to be a wrongful dismissal since the correct notice will not have been given if the dismissal was caused by a resignation itself caused by the employer's serious breach of contract. An employee who was constructively dismissed, as well as possibly having a claim for breach of the duty not to destroy the bond of mutual trust, will usually have a claim for wrongful dismissal. As only economic loss can be claimed for breach of contract, the main loss will be earnings due to the lost notice period as opposed to any disgruntlement about the manner or reason for dismissal, so the constructive nature of the dismissal tends to disappear into the claim for lost notice period.
