Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal dismissed the claimant's direct discrimination claim concerning an incident in May 2018 because it was presented outside the normal time limits and the Tribunal found it would not be just and equitable to extend time.
The Tribunal dismissed the claimant's unlawful harassment claims covering the period between May 2018 and 17 May 2019 as not well-founded. It also dismissed the discrimination arising from disability claim concerning an incident on 8 March 2019, finding that the alleged unfavourable treatment was a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.
The Tribunal further dismissed the claimant's claims of failure to make reasonable adjustments between 4 February 2019 and 17 May 2019 as not well-founded. No remedy or monetary award was 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.
