Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy consent, the respondent's name was amended to Scott Health & Safety Limited. The tribunal found that the claimant had not been employed by the respondent for two complete years as at the date of his dismissal.
The claimant's claim of automatic unfair dismissal on the basis that he made a health and safety disclosure to the respondent was found not well-founded and was dismissed. The tribunal then recorded that, accordingly, the claimant's claims of unfair dismissal were dismissed in their entirety.
The decision was given orally at the hearing, and the written record notes that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days of the sent date. No monetary remedy was awarded.

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.
