Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard by Employment Judge P Klimov sitting alone at London Central on 29 January 2021 by video. The respondent was the University of Westminster and the claimant appeared in person. The tribunal recorded that a remote hearing was appropriate because of the Coronavirus pandemic restrictions.
On the merits, the tribunal found that the respondent did not commit a fundamental breach of the claimant's contract of employment. It held that the claimant resigned and was not constructively dismissed, whether by reason of redundancy or otherwise.
The tribunal therefore dismissed the claimant's claims for constructive dismissal, unfair dismissal, and redundancy pay. No monetary award was made.

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.
