Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Rayner, sitting at Southampton on 20 February 2024, heard the claim with the Claimant in person and the Respondent not in attendance. The Tribunal first recorded that the Respondent had changed its name from The Green Charging Company LTD to One Transport UK LTD on 28 December 2023 and substituted the new name on the proceedings.
The Tribunal declared that the Claimant had been discriminated against on grounds of pregnancy contrary to section 18 of the Equality Act 2010, and that she had been automatically unfairly dismissed contrary to section 99 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 and Regulation 20 of the Maternity and Parental Leave Regulations 1999.
On remedy, the Tribunal ordered the Respondent to pay the Claimant a total of £19,608.86, comprising loss of earnings for 6 weeks (£2,661.03) with interest (£106.44), loss of pension pay (£81.60) with interest (£9.79), and an injury to feelings award of £15,000 with interest of £1,700. Reasons were given orally and written reasons will only follow on request within 14 days.

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.
