Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at London Central before Employment Judge Lewis with Ms J Cameron and Ms S Plummer, unanimously held that the respondent failed to make reasonable adjustments by not returning the claimant's workload and level of responsibility to the level they were at when she started her job. That was the only claim upheld.
The tribunal awarded £21,051.74 for that successful reasonable adjustments claim. The award was made up of £16,000 for injury to feelings, a 15% uplift of £2,400 for unreasonable failure to comply with the ACAS Code on Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures in relation to the right to have a grievance appeal, and £2,651.74 interest at 8% calculated from 1 March 2022 to 18 December 2023.
The claims for direct disability discrimination and disability-related harassment were not upheld. The judgment does not set out any separate monetary award for those dismissed claims.

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.
