Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Newcastle before Employment Judge Sweeney with members Clare Hunter and Derek Cattell, heard the claim over three days in March 2024. It found that the claim of failure to make reasonable adjustments was well-founded and succeeded against Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Great Britain Limited.
On remedy, the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £15,000 for injury to feelings and £2,252.05 in interest on financial losses, calculated as 685 x 0.08 x 1/365 x £15,000, producing a total award of £17,252.05.
Reasons were given orally at the hearing; written reasons were not provided in this record unless requested within 14 days. The judgment itself does not set out further detail of the underlying findings beyond the conclusion on liability and the remedy figures.

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.
