Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr O Abdulle brought a claim of unfair dismissal against RSK Group. The tribunal held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service before a claimant can bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. On that basis, it concluded that he was not entitled to bring the proceedings.
The judgment records that the claimant was given an opportunity to give an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out, but he did not do so. The tribunal therefore struck out the whole claim.

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.
