Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The case was heard at London Central on 29, 30 April and 1, 2 and 3 May 2024 before Employment Judge B Smith sitting with members Ms Craik and Mr Adolphus. The tribunal dismissed the unfair dismissal claim as not well-founded.

The tribunal upheld one complaint of unfavourable treatment because of something arising in consequence of disability. That successful complaint was the respondent insisting that Ms Fajri undergo a medical assessment before she could return to work, as referred to in emails of 14 December 2022 and 1 March 2023. The tribunal dismissed the remaining complaints of unfavourable treatment because of something arising in consequence of disability.

The tribunal also dismissed the complaint of failure to make reasonable adjustments for disability. Directions on remedy were left to a separate case management order, so this judgment did not record a monetary award.

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.
