Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Bristol by video on 30 September and 2, 3, 4, 7 and 8 October 2024 before Employment Judge Ferguson with lay members Mr K Ghotbi-Ravandi and Ms D England. It gave a unanimous judgment on liability only, and listed a remedy hearing for 31 January 2025.
The complaint of unfair dismissal succeeded. The tribunal found the claimant had been unfairly dismissed, but also found that if the respondent had carried out a fair procedure the claimant would have been fairly dismissed three weeks later, on 27 July 2023.
The disability discrimination claims succeeded only in part. The tribunal found one complaint of discrimination arising from disability well-founded because the respondent paid statutory sick pay instead of full pay from 19 to 30 May 2023 inclusive. It dismissed the remaining complaints of discrimination arising from disability and dismissed the complaints of failure to make reasonable adjustments for disability.

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.
