Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records that a Preliminary Hearing was listed for 6 September 2022, with notices sent on 6 December 2021 and again on 1 September 2022, and login details sent on 5 September 2022. Neither the Claimant nor the Respondent attended, and neither contacted the Tribunal to explain their absence. The Tribunal attempted to contact both parties, but there was no response.
On 6 September 2022 the Tribunal made an Unless Order requiring the parties to write in explaining why they had not attended and why the claim and response should continue. No communication was received. The Tribunal then dismissed the claims under Schedule 1, Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013.
The judgment does not determine the merits of the underlying claims and does not record any findings on liability, wages, working time, breach of contract, or whistleblowing allegations. It also records that the hearing listed for 11 and 12 May 2023 was cancelled.

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. See full methodology.
