Claim dismissed
Discrimination, Whistleblowing and Other
Heard at Manchester
All claims were dismissed: the whistleblowing detriment claim failed because the protected disclosures were not the reason for any detriment; the disability discrimination claim failed because the respondent did not have knowledge of the disability at the material time; and the reasonable adjustments and certain detriment allegations were withdrawn.
