Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal at London South heard the case on 13-21 June 2022 before Employment Judge Webster, sitting with Ms J Jerram and Mr M Cann. It found that the claimant’s direct disability discrimination claim under s13 Equality Act 2010 was not upheld, and it also rejected the breach of contract claim.
The tribunal upheld the claimant’s claims for indirect disability discrimination under s19 Equality Act 2010, discrimination arising out of disability under s15 Equality Act 2010, and failure to make reasonable adjustments under ss20-21 Equality Act 2010. The harassment claim relating to disability was partially upheld.
At remedy, the respondent was ordered to pay compensation in respect of financial losses of £6,628.65 and compensation for injury to feelings of £15,000. Interest was agreed in the presence of the parties and was calculated at 8% on 384 days for the financial losses, producing £557.90, and at 8% on 813 days for the injury to feelings award, producing £2,672.88.
The total payable was £24,859.43. The judgment records that costs were not determined in this decision and would be dealt with in a separate judgment.

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.
