Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr G Singh’s claims were heard at Birmingham on 23-27 August 2021 before Employment Judge Mark Butler with Ms M Howard and Ms S Fritz. The tribunal dismissed the claimant’s claims for direct discrimination and discrimination arising out of disability, but found that he had been unfairly dismissed.
Annex 1 recorded an effective date of termination of 25 September 2020, age 52, 24 years’ service, net weekly pay of £464.10, gross weekly pay of £374, weekly employer pension contributions of £8.43, and redundancy pay already received of £11,834.10. The tribunal allowed a further period of three weeks to undertake fair consultation.
The basic award was calculated at £0 because the statutory basic award calculation was offset by the redundancy payment already received. The compensatory award was made up of £1,122 for past net loss of earnings, £25.29 for loss of pension contributions, and £500 for loss of statutory rights, producing £1,647.29 before uplift.
The tribunal then applied a 25% increase pursuant to s.123 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, adding £411.83 and bringing the total award to £2,059.11 net.

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.
