Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing on 7, 8 and 9 August 2024 before Employment Judge Ayre with lay members Mr Q Shah and Mr K Lannaman, the tribunal gave a unanimous judgment. The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.
The tribunal recorded that the pregnancy discrimination claim was out of time and that it did not have jurisdiction to hear it. The constructive unfair dismissal claim was found not well founded and dismissed, and the indirect sex discrimination claim was also found not well founded and dismissed.
The claim for failure to comply with the flexible working provisions in the Employment Rights Act 1996 succeeded. The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £1,377.44. The written judgment does not break that sum down into separate heads of loss.

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.
