Boots Management Services Ltd employment tribunal cases

Discrimination and Unfair Dismissal

Heard at Manchester

This was a preliminary hearing regarding an application to amend the claim, which the Judge granted; it was not a final determination of liability or quantum.

Unauthorised deduction from wages

The claim was dismissed because the allegation of unauthorised wage deductions was not substantiated and was deemed not well founded.

Unfair Dismissal (constructive)

Heard at Leeds

Dismissed because the tribunal found the claim had no reasonable prospect of success and the claimant failed to comply with case‑management orders, leading to a strike‑out and dismissal of all substantive claims.

Disability Discrimination

The claim was dismissed because it was filed outside the statutory three‑month limit and the tribunal found it not just and equitable to grant an extension.

Disability Discrimination

Heard at Birmingham

The tribunal held the claim was reasonably practicable to file on time, so extension was refused and the constructive unfair dismissal and holiday‑pay claims were dismissed for want of jurisdiction, but it exercised its just‑and‑equitable discretion to allow the disability discrimination claims to proceed.
