Mr M Llanos v Fairview Grocers Limited — 2023

The tribunal upheld Mr M Llanos's unfair dismissal claim against Fairview Grocers Limited. It found that the claimant caused and contributed to his dismissal, and stated that both the basic and compensatory awards would be reduced by 60%. No remedy figure was fixed in the liability judgment, and a remedies hearing was to be listed if the parties did not otherwise resolve compensation.

The claimant's disability discrimination claims were dismissed. The tribunal dismissed the claim for direct disability discrimination, the claim for discrimination arising from a disability, and the claim for harassment related to a disability. The extracted judgment does not set out the detailed reasoning for those dismissals, only the outcomes.

The tribunal also found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages in relation to unpaid holiday pay. As with the unfair dismissal claim, the judgment records liability but leaves compensation to be determined later or resolved between the parties. The judgment was signed by Employment Judge Yale on 5 October 2023, with Ms A Berry and Mr D Hurrell sitting as members.
