Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued in the London South Employment Tribunals on 23 May 2024.

The tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and ordered the respondent to pay damages of £460. The tribunal also found that the claimant was the subject of discrimination by reason of age and ordered the respondent to pay damages of £500. All other complaints brought by the claimant were dismissed.

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.
