Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Webhelp. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service for an unfair dismissal complaint to be brought.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, so he was not entitled to bring these proceedings. It also recorded that he did not give an acceptable reason, despite having the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out.
The judgment therefore ordered that the claim be struck out. No monetary remedy was awarded or set out in the judgment.

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.
