Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment in which the respondent, Wiseman Lighting Ltd, did not respond to the claim. On that basis, and because the matters in the claim form were not disputed, the tribunal recorded that the claimant, Abbie Worthington, succeeded in her claim of discrimination on the ground of pregnancy or maternity.
The judgment does not set out detailed factual findings beyond the Rule 21 basis for decision. It does not record any liability analysis beyond stating that the pregnancy or maternity discrimination claim succeeds.
No remedy was assessed in the judgment itself. The tribunal stated that the remedy to which the claimant is entitled would be determined at a hearing.

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.
