Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the claimant, represented by his union representative, and the respondent, represented by a solicitor, at Birmingham Employment Tribunal between 15 July 2024 and 19 July 2024. The reasons for the decision were given orally, and the written judgment records that written reasons would only be provided if requested by a party within 14 days.
The claimant's unfair dismissal claim succeeded. His claim for dismissal because of discrimination arising in consequence of disability under sections 15 and 39 Equality Act 2010 also succeeded. His claim of failure to make reasonable adjustments failed and was dismissed.
The judgment did not determine remedy. It stated that the case would be listed for a remedies hearing as soon as practicable.

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.
