Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records that, on the Respondent's admission of liability, the Claimant's claims succeeded. Those claims were unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal limited to unpaid notice after 13 February 2024, discrimination because of something arising in consequence of disability in respect of the dismissal, and failure to make reasonable adjustments from late 2023 to the end of employment.
For the reasonable adjustments claim, the judgment identified the relevant PCPs as assigning customer service providers to trailer duty and dismissing staff with certain levels of absence. The written judgment records the outcome and remedy only; reasons were given orally at the hearing.
The Respondent was ordered to pay £39,300.08 in total. This comprised a basic award and loss of statutory rights for unfair dismissal, plus sums for loss of earnings and pension, interest, and injury to feelings in respect of disability discrimination, with any wrongful dismissal sums included in those disability discrimination sums.

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.
