Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing in Aberdeen on 23 March 2026 concerned Mr Viktor Damyanov's application for interim relief against Hays Specialist Recruitment Service Limited. The respondent was not present or represented. The tribunal recorded from the ET1 that the claimant was an agency worker working through the respondent company with Lifescan Scotland Limited.
Employment Judge Hendry refused the application for interim relief. The tribunal stated that the claimant had insufficient service to make a claim for unfair dismissal. It also stated that interim relief is limited to automatically unfair dismissal and that the ET1 disclosed no such basis. No monetary remedy was awarded or addressed 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.
