Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered only the claimant’s claim for a redundancy payment. It recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years’ service for such a claim. On the facts found, the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years, so he was not entitled to bring the claim.
Claims and outcomes
1 finding recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Redundancy | The tribunal struck out the redundancy payment claim because the claimant had been employed for less than two years and therefore did not satisfy the service requirement in section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The reasons note that the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out but did not provide an acceptable reason. | Struck out | — | — |

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.
