Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing, the tribunal found that the claimant was not, at the material times, a disabled person within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010. The claimant confirmed that his direct disability discrimination and disability-related harassment claims were based solely on his own disability, and those claims were dismissed.
The claimant had also confirmed at an earlier case management hearing that he could not pursue unfair dismissal because he had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. The unfair dismissal claim was dismissed on that basis.
The direct age discrimination claim was not finally determined in this judgment. The tribunal recorded that it would proceed to a full hearing unless the parties reached agreement.

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.
