Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a remote preliminary hearing, the tribunal considered the time limit issue for Mr Tariq's disability discrimination claim against Telecom Service Centres Ltd t/a Webhelp UK.
The tribunal held that although the claim was presented outside the primary time limit in section 123(1)(a) of the Equality Act 2010, it was presented within a just and equitable further period under section 123(1)(b). Oral reasons were given to the parties, and no written reasons were requested.
The judgment does not determine whether disability discrimination occurred and does not make any award of compensation.

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.
