Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningElizabeth Williams's complaint that she was unfairly dismissed by MJL Contractors Ltd was struck out. The tribunal recorded that she had been employed by the respondent for less than two years and that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that Ms Williams was therefore not entitled to bring the complaint. Having been given an opportunity to explain why it should not be struck out, she did not provide an acceptable reason. Her other complaints were expressly unaffected by this judgment, and no remedy was recorded.

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.
