Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing by video on 11 January 2024 before Employment Judge Burge, the tribunal struck out the claimant's complaint that the respondent failed to allow him to apply for voluntary severance in or around August 2022. The tribunal held that complaint had no reasonable prospect of success under Employment Tribunal Rule 37(1)(a).
The tribunal also recorded two further direct discrimination complaints as withdrawn: the allegation that in or around August 2022 the respondent failed to consider the claimant for or award him Ill Health Early Retirement, and the allegation that he was dismissed on 15 November 2022. The record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.

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.
