Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Reading on 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29 February and 1 and 4 March 2024 before Employment Judge Gumbiti-Zimuto with Mrs F Potter and Mrs F Tankard as members. The judgment records that the claimant withdrew his complaint about failing to provide a written pay statement contrary to section 8 Employment Rights Act 1996, and that complaint was dismissed upon withdrawal.
The tribunal then dismissed the remaining complaints as not well founded. Those included unfair dismissal, detriment because of a protected disclosure, unfair dismissal because of making a protected disclosure, disability discrimination, harassment, victimisation, breach of section 10 of the Employment Relations Act 1999, and failure to provide written reasons for dismissal. The judgment records no monetary award or other remedy.

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.
