Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint against Kiren Foods Limited. It held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have at least two years' service in order to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that Mr Manzoor had been employed for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal concluded that he was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also recorded that he had been given the opportunity to provide an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out, but had not done so.
The judgment therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. The tribunal noted that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this 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.
