A Bristol-based finance manager, Iryna Malyk, brings an employment tribunal claim of unfair dismissal after her employer sacks her following her request to relocate and work from France. The tribunal hears that she was working from home when she told her employers she wanted to move across the Channel.

The dispute centers on whether her relocation request was permitted. The report says she had previously been told she could not work there, but she nevertheless moved, leading to her dismissal. The sources provided focus on the claim and the tribunal’s description of her communications and circumstances. No additional details on the employer’s stated reasons, the timeline of events, or the tribunal’s interim findings are included in the excerpts.

As presented, the case reflects a workplace question about remote work location rules and employer permissions, with the employee alleging unfair dismissal.
