Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal (Employment Judge JM Wade with Mr M Weller and Mr M Taj), sitting at Hull, gave a unanimous judgment after a multi-day hearing. The claimant represented himself; the respondent was represented by a solicitor.
The complaint of failure to make reasonable adjustments succeeded. Disability-related harassment succeeded in part (allegations 1, 8 and 9), with the remainder dismissed. The complaints of victimisation and constructive unfair dismissal were not well-founded and were dismissed.
The Tribunal awarded £17,000 for injury to feelings and £5,615.12 in interest, giving a total payable by the respondent of £22,615.12. Provision was made for any costs or preparation time application within 28 days. Oral full reasons were given for liability and summary reasons for remedy.

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.
