Practice question
An employee submits only an unsupported assertion of an essential fact. The employer gives relevant contrary records. The employee insists that relaxed evidence rules compel the tribunal to accept the assertion and disregard all records because the case is nonlitigious. Which is best?
- Relaxation always makes allegations conclusive
- Contrary records must always be ignored
- Nonlitigious means there are no facts to prove
- Every claim automatically succeeds
- Relaxed technicality does not remove the need for relevant adequate evidence or fair assessment of both sides’ submissions
