Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting remotely at Birmingham on 10, 11 and 22 September 2025 before Employment Judge Manley, determined the claimant's employment status for the purposes of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It found that Mr Glenn Williams was not an employee within section 230(1) and (2), but was a worker within section 230(3).
On that basis, the tribunal dismissed the claimant's unfair dismissal claim. The judgment records that the claim failed because, as a worker, the claimant had no entitlement to claim unfair dismissal. The reasons were given orally at the hearing, and no written reasons were provided in the written record of the decision.

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.
