Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the claimant, who described her protected characteristic as half Arab and half black, was constructively dismissed and that the constructive dismissal was unfair. It also found that the claim under section 39(7) of the Equality Act 2010 succeeded.
The tribunal upheld some complaints of harassment related to race, finding that issues 5.1.1, 5.1.2, 5.1.3, 5.1.4, 5.1.8 and 5.1.9 formed part of a continuing series of conduct from late August 2023 until the claimant resigned. Other harassment allegations were dismissed, and the tribunal dismissed the direct race discrimination and victimisation claims.
No remedy was awarded in this judgment. The tribunal listed a one-day remedy hearing and ordered the claimant to file an updated schedule of loss and witness statement addressing injury to feelings for the successful harassment allegations.

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.
