Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Birmingham on 22 to 25 April 2024, gave a unanimous decision dismissing all of the claimant's claims. It held that the dismissal was not automatically unfair under section 100 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and that the unfair dismissal claim was not well-founded.
The tribunal also dismissed the claimant's section 44 Employment Rights Act 1996 detriment claim. No written reasons were issued in the judgment itself because reasons were given orally at the hearing, unless a request for written reasons was made within 14 days.
In the Equality Act claims, the tribunal stated that the respondent did not act towards the claimant in contravention of section 39 of the Equality Act 2010, and dismissed the claims for direct sex discrimination and victimisation. It also stated that the respondent did not act towards the claimant in contravention of section 40 of the Equality Act 2010, and dismissed the harassment claim.

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.
