Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Cambridge by CVP on 7, 8 and 9 August 2023 before Employment Judge M Ord with members Mrs L Durrant and Mr G Page. Its unanimous judgment dismissed the Claimant’s complaints of disability discrimination contrary to s.15 Equality Act 2010, automatic unfair dismissal contrary to s.100(1)(d) Employment Rights Act 1996, and wrongful dismissal, finding those complaints were not well founded.
The tribunal also recorded that the Respondent had failed to provide the Claimant with a written statement of particulars of employment as required by s.1 Employment Rights Act 1996. However, it stated that as no other claim under that Act succeeded, no compensation was awarded in respect of that matter.
No monetary award is recorded in the judgment. The written record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in time.

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.
