Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal upheld the Claimant’s complaint of direct race discrimination against JAF Foods Company Ltd. It ordered the Respondent to pay £30,215.13, made up of £6,000 for injury to feelings, £616.44 interest on that award, £22,452.33 for loss of earnings, and £1,146.36 interest on the loss-of-earnings element.
The tribunal also found that the Respondent made unauthorised deductions from the Claimant’s wages between March and October 2023. It ordered payment of the gross sum of £7,123.10, being the amount unlawfully deducted.
The complaint of unfair dismissal was struck out because the Claimant did not have the necessary qualifying service. The judgment therefore records no substantive determination of unfair dismissal on the merits.

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.
