Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the case in person at Southampton, with some evidence given over a video link. The judgment records that the claimant, Miss Eileen Gleeson, pursued claims of age discrimination, part-time worker detriment, victimisation, automatic unfair dismissal linked to the right to be accompanied, and unpaid holiday pay.
Each pleaded claim was dismissed. The tribunal dismissed the direct discrimination claim under section 13 Equality Act 2010, the claim under regulation 5 of the Part-Time Workers (Prevention of Less Favourable Treatment) Regulations 2000, the victimisation claim under section 27 Equality Act 2010, the automatic unfair dismissal claim under section 104 Employment Rights Act 1996 or alternatively sections 10 to 12 of the Employment Relations Act 1999, and the unpaid holiday pay claim under the Working Time Regulations 1998.
The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days. No monetary award is recorded in the judgment.

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.
