Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing was listed to determine the claimant's application for interim relief. The claimant had been employed by the respondent as an ESP co-ordinator and was dismissed on 13 June 2023 on the stated ground of redundancy after consultation and appeal steps.
The Tribunal considered the claimant's alleged protected disclosures and complaints, including complaints about his own circumstances and a complaint about storage of dangerous goods. It made no findings on whether the alleged disclosures were made in the public interest, but considered whether they affected the dismissal decision-making process.
The Tribunal found that redundancy was the reason for dismissal for the purposes of the interim relief application. It was not likely that the claimant would establish that the alleged disclosures or health and safety matters were the reason for dismissal, and the application for interim relief was refused.
