Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal found that Royal Mail Group Limited unfairly dismissed Mrs B Joseph. It also found her complaint of discrimination arising from disability well founded and upheld it.

The tribunal dismissed Mrs Joseph's complaint that the respondent breached its duty to make reasonable adjustments. The written judgment records the outcomes but gives no findings or reasons, which were delivered orally at the hearing.

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.
