Mixed outcome£4,024.15 awarded

Unfair Dismissal and Breach of Contract

Heard at London South

The wrongful dismissal claim succeeded because four weeks of notice pay remained unpaid, while the unfair dismissal claim was dismissed because Harrods had a genuine belief in misconduct following a reasonable investigation and dismissal fell within the range of reasonable responses.

Legal Issues (2)

Wrongful dismissal (breach of contract – notice pay)
unfair dismissal under s.98 ERA 1996 (conduct reason, Burchell test, range of reasonable responses, procedural fairness)

Reference: 6005182/2025

Unfair Dismissal and Discrimination

Heard at London South

The claims for unfair dismissal and failure to make reasonable adjustments were struck out because the claimant had no reasonable prospects of obtaining an extension of time, while the discrimination arising from disability claim survives.

Legal Issues (2)

Whether the claimant had reasonable prospects of securing an extension of time for unfair dismissal under s.111 Employment Rights Act 1996 and for failure to make reasonable adjustments under s.123 Equality Act 2010

Claim dismissed

Unfair Dismissal, Whistleblowing and Other

Heard at London Central

Interim relief was denied because the judge was not convinced the claimant was likely to succeed on the unfair dismissal claim, finding the redundancy was genuine and there was insufficient evidence of a protected disclosure or designated health‑and‑safety activity.

Legal Issues (3)

Whether the claimant was likely to succeed on his unfair dismissal claim based on protected disclosure (s.103A ERA) or health‑and‑safety activity (s.100 ERA)
therefore whether interim relief under s.129 ERA should be granted
the relevance of redundancy (s.139 ERA) and the inapplicability of section 105 for interim relief

Reference: 2206663/2020

10 Mar 2025

Claim dismissed

Discrimination

Heard at London Central

The claimant failed to attend the final hearing without valid justification, and the medical evidence did not establish inability to attend remotely, so the tribunal dismissed the claims under Rule 47.

Legal Issues (4)

Rule 47 dismissal for non-attendance
burden of proof on claimant to establish disability and discrimination
reasonable adjustments for hearing attendance
weight of untested witness statement

Reference: 2221237/2024

7 Nov 2024

Claim struck out

Unfair Dismissal, Whistleblowing and Harassment

Heard at London Central

Legal Issues (4)

Whether the claimant could bring employment claims against a non-employer
whether she had sufficient service for unfair dismissal
whether she made a qualifying public interest disclosure
whether harassment was linked to a protected characteristic
