Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal recorded that the claimant's claims of unfair dismissal, discrimination arising in consequence of disability, and failure to make reasonable adjustments were well founded and succeeded.
The Tribunal also recorded that the claimant's claim of direct disability discrimination was not well founded and was dismissed. The written judgment does not set out the factual reasoning, as reasons were given orally and written reasons would only be provided if requested.

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.
