Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing on 4 May 2023 before Employment Judge McLaren was a preliminary judgment on respondent status and jurisdiction in case 2302597/2020. The tribunal struck out the claims brought against the second respondent, Mark Blewitt, because the claimant agreed that he was not her employer and the claims required the respondent to be the employer.
The tribunal also held that it had territorial jurisdiction to hear all of the claims brought by the claimant against the first respondent, Xiamen Ason Products Limited, and found that the claimant was an employee of that respondent. No substantive liability findings or monetary remedy were recorded in this judgment.

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.
