Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Bury St Edmunds by remote CVP hearing on 26 August 2021, gave a unanimous judgment that the claimant’s claim of pregnancy and maternity discrimination under section 18 was not well founded and failed. The panel comprised Employment Judge K Welch, Ms J Costley and Mr A Chinn-Shaw.
The tribunal also unanimously found that the claimant’s claim of unlawful deductions from wages was not well founded and failed. The written record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in time by either party.

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.
