Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Croydon via CVP on 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15 and 16 October 2024 before Employment Judge Leith, Mrs M Oates-Hinds and Ms G Mitchell. It held that the harassment complaints on the grounds of sexual orientation in paragraphs 8.1.1 and 8.1.3 of the list of issues succeeded. The remaining harassment complaints on that ground were dismissed.
The tribunal also held that the victimisation complaints in paragraphs 9.2.8 and 9.2.16 succeeded. All other claims were dismissed: direct disability discrimination, direct sexual orientation discrimination, failure to make reasonable adjustments, harassment related to disability, and detriment on grounds related to trade union membership or activities. The written record states that reasons were given orally and does not record any monetary award.

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.
