Letter Confirming SOSR Dismissal Following Disqualification From Working With Children

This letter should be used to confirm the dismissal of a worker for ‘some other substantial reason’ following their disqualification from working with children.

The reason for the dismissal in this situation is ‘Some other substantial reason’ (SOSR), a catch-all category designed to allow employers to terminate an employment contract when no other potentially fair reasons apply. 

When considering a SOSR dismissal, the employer must ensure that, as in this case, the reason for dismissal is substantial. The employer must also demonstrate that they have acted reasonably, followed an appropriate procedure and considered other possibilities (such as redeployment) before moving to dismiss the employee.

The letter confirms that a meeting was held to discuss the situation, and that consideration was given to the employee continuing in their role (with adjustments if necessary) and to alternative roles in the Company. The employee is also given a right of appeal.
