Monday 3rd November, 2025 - 11am
When it comes to dismissals, "Some Other Substantial Reason" (SOSR) is often seen as the HR catch-all, the option you turn to when no other fair reason quite fits. But while SOSR provides flexibility, it's far from a free pass. Misapplied, it can expose organisations to significant risk.
In this webinar, we broke down what SOSR really means in practice, when it's appropriate to rely on it, and the importance of gathering sufficient evidence to support the decision. On Monday 3rd November we explored practical examples, outlined the potential pitfalls, and shared clear guidance on how HR professionals can apply SOSR safely, fairly, and defensibly, only when all else fails.
