Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

At a preliminary hearing on 30 July 2019 before Employment Judge Ahmed sitting alone in Leicester, the Tribunal struck out the Claimant's complaints of sex discrimination and equal pay. The equal pay complaints were described as claims of like work and work of equal value.

The Tribunal also struck out the disability discrimination complaint, but not in its entirety. Allegation 12.3 from the order of 26 June 2019, said to be that the Claimant was allegedly dismissed either wholly or in part for disability-related reasons, was not struck out and was allowed to proceed to a hearing.

The unfair dismissal complaint was not determined at this preliminary hearing. The judgment records that it was to be heard at the final hearing listed for 30 September to 2 October 2019. The written record notes that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless 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.
