Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that Mr Stephen Monroe’s ordinary unfair dismissal complaint against Gem Security Systems Ltd was well-founded. It found that he had been unfairly dismissed, but also stated that there was a 95% chance he would have been dismissed in any event.
The tribunal dismissed the remaining complaints, namely the s103A Employment Rights Act 1996 complaint of unfair dismissal for making a protected disclosure, the detriment complaint for making a protected disclosure, the disability complaint based on unfavourable treatment because of something arising in consequence of disability, the disability complaint for failure to make reasonable adjustments, and the victimisation complaint.
On remedy, the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £1,760.92 as compensation for net past financial losses. The written record does not break that sum into separate basic award, compensatory award, or interest components.

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.
