Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt only with two complaints in this judgment: unfair dismissal and failure to pay a redundancy payment. It found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years. On that basis, the tribunal held that he did not satisfy the service requirement for bringing those complaints under sections 108 and 155 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
Claims and outcomes
2 findings recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |

| Redundancy | Struck out for the same reason: the claimant had less than two years' service and was therefore not entitled to bring the complaint. | Struck out | — | — |

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.
