I have just found out my partner has been sacked, there was a disciplinary hearing. He was let go with 3 months notice pay..

Does this mean he has been sacked for gross misconduct or not?

I think from reading online it means he has been let go as PILON is this better than gross misconduct?

Essentially the details are unproven as no witnesses but they said they believed the other person.

Thanks

Sounds like dismissal rather than summary dismissal, the latter has no notice pay.

The organisation should put in writing to your partner the outcome and reasoning.

There should be the option of appeal given in that letter.

Are you asking on here because he won’t tell you the details? He’ll know if he’s been sacked for gross misconduct surely. Won’t he tell you what it is he allegedly did?

He's not telling the truth, he'll have had both a meeting and a letter to tell him exactly why he's been fired. Ask him to show it to you.

Agree with PP, he’s not telling you the truth. There will have been an investigation and a report sent to him before a hearing. He will have had the chance to put his mitigation forward and if he was dismissed anyway it’s likely it was more than one word against another. How do you know he has PILON?
If you didn’t know he had been dismissed you can’t believe this either.
What were the allegations? You need to ask a lot more questions and see the report and hearing outcome letter. This will tell you everything you need to know.
