Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt with the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint only. It found that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal claim, and that Mr M Hussey had been employed by FGH Security Ltd for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal held that the claimant was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also recorded that, despite being given the opportunity, the claimant did not give an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out.
The result was that the unfair dismissal complaint was struck out. The judgment states that the claimant's other complaint was not affected by this decision, but no determination of that other complaint appears in the extracted text.

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.
