Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard Mr G Simons' claim against Warner Leisure Hotels by video conference on 16 and 17 November 2020. Employment Judge Rayner sat alone. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent was represented by counsel. The hearing was public and conducted by CVP with the parties' consent.
The only claim recorded in the judgment was unfair dismissal. The tribunal found that the claimant was not an employee within the meaning of section 230 of the Employment Rights Act, so the Employment Tribunal had no jurisdiction to hear the claim. On that basis, the unfair dismissal claim was dismissed.

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.
