Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMiss R Hensman's unfair dismissal complaint against Anglia Stairlifts Ltd was struck out. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have at least two years' service in order to bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
It found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. On that basis, the tribunal concluded that she was not entitled to pursue an unfair dismissal claim and struck it out. The judgment states that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this decision, and it did not determine those matters.

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.
