Ms T Panteli v The Greek Orthodox Community of Saint Demetrios of Edmonton (Charity Number: 281574) R1 Gina George R3 — 2025

The tribunal found that Ms Panteli was dismissed within section 95(1)(c) ERA 1996, which it described as a constructive dismissal, and held that her unfair dismissal complaint was well-founded. It recorded that the dismissal took effect on 6 July 2023.

The breach of contract complaint succeeded because the claimant was entitled to 12 weeks' notice and received no notice of dismissal. The complaint of harassment related to race failed and was dismissed.

The tribunal said that all complaints against R3 failed and were dismissed, so only R1 was liable for the complaints that were upheld. On remedy, it ordered a grand total of £26,976, made up of £4,607.84 for notice-period damages, a £12,750 basic award, an £8,618.16 compensatory award for unfair dismissal, and a separate £1,000 award under s.38 Employment Act 2002. It made no adjustment under s.207A TULR(C)A 1992 and recorded that the claimant had no benefits in the relevant period, so the Recoupment Regulations did not apply.
