Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that G4S Secure Solutions (UK) Ltd had unfairly dismissed Mr B Jawneh. It dismissed the respondent’s application to amend its Response and List of Issues to allege that Mr Jawneh contributed to his dismissal by taking his son to work on 24 March 2024 or refusing alternative roles in Southampton. It also dismissed the respondent’s application to introduce further documentary evidence.
Mr Jawneh’s breach of contract claim concerning notice pay was dismissed upon withdrawal. The tribunal dismissed his separate breach of contract claim concerning alleged failures to comply with the disciplinary procedure and flexible working policy. The written judgment records that summary reasons were given orally and does not set out the factual findings or reasoning behind these claim outcomes.
The tribunal ordered a 35% reduction to the basic and contributory awards. It awarded a basic award of £5,834.76 and a compensatory award of £2,486.02, producing a total monetary award of £8,320.78. Under the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Benefits) Regulations 1996, the prescribed element was £2,161.02 for the period from 14 April to 10 May 2025, and the award exceeded that element by £6,159.76.

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.
