An aviation expert who said he was forced to quit work when he was ordered to relocate has lost his employment tribunal claim.
Alan Higman, 45, claimed he had to leave his £32,000 job with the United Arab Emirates' technical training camp on the former Northeye Prison in Bexhill when he was asked to move to Milton Keynes.
He told the Brighton tribunal during the two-day hearing the move would have meant leaving the home he shared with his wife and daughter in Hove.
But Paul Maynard, representing UAE Technical Training, said he was warned of the move and offered free accommodation for both him and his family, with travelling expenses.
Mr Higman lost his claim for unfair constructive dismissal after the tribunal found there was no breach of his contract.
