Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Faulkner sitting alone in Nottingham on 27 August 2019. The respondent was Seymour Capital Limited t/a Mour Hotel. The tribunal was dealing only with limitation issues on a number of disability discrimination complaints, together with an unfair dismissal claim that was left to proceed to final hearing.
The tribunal dismissed three disability discrimination complaints because they were brought after the end of the three-month period starting with the date of the act complained of, and the tribunal was not satisfied that it would be just and equitable to extend time. Those complaints were: discrimination arising from disability, alternatively indirect disability discrimination, said to relate to the disciplinary warning of 15 November 2016; the same type of complaint in relation to the disciplinary hearing on 26 July 2017; and a complaint of failure to make reasonable adjustments said to arise from an alleged failure to carry out a risk assessment between 26 July 2017 and 3 November 2017.
The judgment states that the remaining complaints of disability discrimination and the unfair dismissal claim would be heard at a final hearing. No monetary remedy was awarded in this preliminary decision.
