Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Plymouth before Employment Judge Smail, found that on 21 February 2024 the Respondent failed to make a reasonable adjustment by not informing the Claimant of the subject matter of an investigation meeting scheduled for 23 February 2024. Save for that single finding, the Claimant's remaining claims were dismissed.
In respect of the upheld claim, the Respondent was ordered to pay £3,000 for injury to feelings plus £360 interest, making a total of £3,360, payable within 14 days. Written Reasons have been requested and will follow, so the detailed reasoning underlying the judgment is not set out in the document available.

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.
