Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal, sitting at Manchester before Employment Judge Cookson with Mrs C Jammeh and Mr BJ McCaughey, heard the case on 16, 17 and 18 November 2022. The claimant was Ms R Gbortsui and the respondent was The Disabilities Trust. The Tribunal gave oral reasons at the hearing and the written record states that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the usual time limit.
The unanimous judgment was that the claimant’s claim of unfair dismissal under the Employment Rights Act 1996 was not well founded and was dismissed. The Tribunal also held that the claimant’s race discrimination claim under section 13 of the Equality Act 2010 was not well founded and was dismissed. No monetary award is recorded in the 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.
