Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal in Liverpool, sitting on 5, 6 and 7 June 2024, heard claims by Mrs Gemma Holden against Lidl Great Britain Limited. Employment Judge Johnson sat with Ms L Heath and Mr J Murdie. The written record states that the judgment was given orally at the hearing and that no written reasons would be provided unless requested.
The tribunal rejected the unfair dismissal complaint and found that the claimant was fairly dismissed by reason of capability. It also rejected the disability discrimination complaints. The direct discrimination claim under section 13 Equality Act 2010 was found not well founded, and the claim that the respondent failed to comply with its duty to make reasonable adjustments under sections 20 and 21 Equality Act 2010 was also found not well founded.
No monetary award is recorded in the judgment extract, and the decision does not set out any separate remedy findings. The record therefore shows dismissal of all claims and no awarded sum 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.
