Sacking over emails

[hosedoctor]

Hi guys,my cousin works for a big company and has been sending a few jokes to other workers that to be fair are a bit of the locker room type! He isn't denying he hasn't but it looks like they are going to try to get rid of him over it,now the thing is he has had a good work record for over 20 years and the guy that has brought this all to light was sent one of the jokes three years ago but never said anything about it then. Does this sound a bit like constructive dismissal??

Hi guys,thanks for the replys,he has been pulled over the resent ones but he has never had any problems about it before the point I'm trying to make is that why didn't the company pull him regarding it three years ago (he has proof of this) and now they are. I will ask him if he has signed anything about emails. By the way the jokes weren't that bad,but you know how the PC mob are now!

Your spot on there,yes he has been doing it for years,but there are others in the company that has been doing it,to be honest I think they are trying to have a clear out? As for a contract regarding IT uses,he hasn't had.
