Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal found that the claimant was not an employee or worker of the respondent at the relevant time.
On that basis, the claims for redundancy payment, notice pay and holiday pay were dismissed because the Tribunal did not have jurisdiction to determine them. Reasons were given orally at the hearing, and the written judgment does not set out further factual findings.

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.
