Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal sat in Inverness with Employment Judge J M Hendry and members N Quinn and S Larkin. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent was represented by counsel, instructed by a solicitor.
The judgment records that, for reasons given orally at the close of the hearing on 29 August 2025, the unanimous decision was to dismiss all listed claims. Those claims were unfair (“constructive”) dismissal, discrimination arising from disability, failure to make reasonable adjustments, harassment related to disability, and victimisation.
The written judgment does not set out the oral reasons or any remedy decision. No monetary award was made in the written judgment because all claims were dismissed.

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.
