Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe parties agreed that the Claimant's employment transferred from Asda Stores Limited to Cooperative Group Limited under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006. Liability for matters arising before the transfer therefore transferred to the Second Respondent, and the First Respondent was removed from the proceedings.
The Tribunal found that the Claimant's constructive dismissal claim had not crystallised by the date the proceedings were issued. It held that the requirements of s.111 Employment Rights Act 1996 were not met and that it did not have jurisdiction to hear the claim. The Claimant indicated that he may wish to pursue claims in another forum.

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.
