Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing before Employment Judge Street, sitting with Mr J Shah and Mr M Richardson, the tribunal gave an oral judgment on 11 June 2021. It upheld the claimant's claims for constructive unfair dismissal, failure to make reasonable adjustments for disability, indirect disability discrimination, and harassment related to age.
The judgment also recorded that the claims of indirect age discrimination and direct disability discrimination were dismissed on withdrawal. Remedy was listed to be dealt with at a later hearing on 21 September 2021, and the record states that the remaining harassment claims would be discussed then, on the basis that they might be withdrawn. No monetary award was set out in this 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.
