Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe unanimous tribunal judgment dismissed the claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal by reason of constructive dismissal. The judgment records no monetary award and does not set out written reasons, because reasons were given orally at the hearing.
The tribunal also dismissed the claimant's complaint of harassment related to disability. The outcome recorded is that the complaint was not well-founded.
The written record notes that no written reasons will be provided unless a request was made at the hearing or is made in writing within 14 days of the decision. On the face of the decision record, the tribunal's final disposition was dismissal of both claims.

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.
