Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant applied for a delivery driver role and the respondent carried out a risk assessment because of concerns about his ability to carry out deliveries. The tribunal found that there was no two-minute hot-rack rule as alleged, that questions and concerns raised during the assessment were part of assessing potential risks, and that an email incorrectly referring to the left arm was a genuine error.
For direct disability discrimination, the tribunal found that the refusal to appoint was connected to the claimant's disability but was not less favourable treatment than an appropriate comparator with the same or very similar abilities. For discrimination arising from disability, the tribunal found the refusal to appoint was unfavourable treatment arising from disability, but was justified as a proportionate means of achieving the legitimate aims of health and safety and maintaining customer service.
For reasonable adjustments, the tribunal found that risk assessments and delivery requirements could amount to PCPs and that the respondent knew of the disadvantage, but the proposed adjustments were not reasonable steps for the respondent to have to take. The tribunal dismissed all complaints.

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. See full methodology.
