Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the Watford Employment Tribunal hearing on 6 and 7 May 2025, Employment Judge Shrimplin gave an oral judgment on 7 May 2025. The tribunal found that Mr A Rahman was not an employee as defined by s230 Employment Rights Act 1996.
Because the claimant was not an employee, the tribunal held that he was not entitled to bring an unfair dismissal claim under s94 Employment Rights Act 1996. The claim therefore fell outside the tribunal's jurisdiction and was dismissed. No monetary remedy was awarded.

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.
