Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal dismissed SNACO UK Ltd, the second respondent, from the proceedings because it was not Miss K Blair's employer. It held that Miss Blair's claim for constructive unfair dismissal was well founded and succeeded. Her wrongful dismissal claim was also well founded and succeeded.
The Tribunal upheld Miss Blair's pregnancy and maternity discrimination complaints concerning the failure to carry out a pregnancy risk assessment in 2023 and the delay in carrying one out in 2024; the removal of HR duties, undermining her and excluding her from the management team; the initiation of misconduct proceedings, including the investigation and invitation to a disciplinary hearing; and an offer of settlement for her to leave her employment. The remaining pregnancy and maternity discrimination claims were not well founded and were dismissed.
The written judgment records that summary reasons were given orally but does not set out further factual or legal reasoning. No compensation was determined in this judgment; a remedy hearing was to be listed.

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.
