Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Buckley found in the claimant's favour on harassment related to race and on one head of victimisation, namely that the respondent pursued allegations of gross misconduct via instructions to Matt Livesey of Black Ink HR up to 21 October 2024. The direct race discrimination claim was dismissed and the direct sex discrimination claim was dismissed on withdrawal. The remaining victimisation complaint was dismissed. The respondent was found in breach of its duty to provide a written statement of employment particulars under s.1 ERA 1996, and the tribunal made an award equal to four weeks' pay (£2,800) under s.38 Employment Act 2002. The combined remedy for the harassment and victimisation findings was £20,735.91, comprising £13,000 injury to feelings, £1,139.71 interest on injury to feelings, £6,014.03 financial losses and £582.17 interest on financial losses. Recoupment regulations do not apply.

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.
