Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary judgment by Employment Judge KJ Palmer sitting alone. The tribunal found that Mr T Baker was an employee of Riva Surveyors Limited during the material time under s.230(1) of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
On that basis, the tribunal held that the claimant's claims survived and that the tribunal had jurisdiction to consider them. No substantive findings were made on the underlying claims in this decision.
The judgment records that the claims were to be heard at a full merits hearing by CVP on 30 March 2021 at Bury St Edmunds Employment Tribunal. No remedy was determined in this judgment.

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.
