Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Douse, sitting alone at Watford Tribunal Centre on 5 May 2021, heard Mr S Carvalho's breach of contract claims against B&Q. The first claim alleged that the Respondent failed to meet with him to discuss the extension of his fixed term contract. The tribunal held that this claim failed and dismissed it.
The second claim alleged breach of contract in relation to the Respondent changing the Claimant's base store location. The tribunal found that this claim was brought out of time and dismissed it for lack of jurisdiction. The judgment records that oral reasons were given 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.
