Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Harrington held that Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust's withdrawal of Ms S Dhanji's offer of employment, on the basis of the number of days she had taken in sickness absence over a 12-month period, was an act of disability discrimination. The tribunal therefore upheld the disability discrimination claim.
The judgment recorded that the claim succeeded and that the question of remedy would be determined at a later Remedy Hearing. No monetary award is set out in this judgment.
