Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe written record states that Miss J Dowdell brought claims against Keys Group Limited, The Leaving Care Company Limited and Crossways Limited, heard at Bristol on 24 and 25 October 2019 before Employment Judge O’Rourke with Mrs Simmonds and Ms Cusack as lay members. The tribunal struck out the claims of unlawful deduction from wages and arrears of holiday pay for want of jurisdiction.
The tribunal also recorded that the claimant’s discrimination claim on grounds of maternity failed and was dismissed. The written judgment record contains only the dispositive orders and does not set out written reasons beyond noting that reasons were given orally at the hearing.

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.
