Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal at Birmingham, sitting by CVP on 25 October 2022 before Employment Judge McCluggage with lay members Rachel Addison and Helen Russell, unanimously found that both the claim for unfair dismissal and the claim for unlawful discrimination on the grounds of maternity leave were well founded. The judgment does not set out detailed reasons in the extracted text, but it records both claims as successful.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant compensation of £18,500. That sum was broken down into £18,000 for injury to feelings in respect of the maternity-related discrimination claim and £500 as a compensatory award for unfair dismissal.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
