Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal unanimously held that the indirect sex discrimination complaint was dismissed on withdrawal. It found that the harassment complaints in allegations 1.4.1 to 1.4.4 and 1.4.6 to 1.4.12 succeeded, and it extended time for those complaints because it was just and equitable to do so. The harassment complaints in allegations 1.4.5 and 1.4.13 to 1.4.16 failed and were dismissed. The direct race discrimination complaint and the victimisation complaint were dismissed, and the wrongful dismissal complaint succeeded.
On remedy, the respondent was ordered by consent to pay 110.40 gross in respect of one week of notice pay. For the proven harassment complaints, the tribunal awarded 17,215.89, made up of 15,000 for injury to feelings and 2,215.89 interest at 8% (calculated in the judgment as 674/365 x 8% of 15,000). The total award was 17,326.29.

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.
