JUDGMENT

The complaint that the claimant was unfairly dismissed is struck out.

REASONS

[2]Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have not less than two years’ service to make an unfair dismissal complaint.[3]The claimant was employed by the respondent for less than two years.[4]Therefore the claimant is not entitled to bring such a complaint.[5]The claimant has failed to give an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out.[6]Accordingly, the complaint of unfair dismissal is struck out. The claimant’s other complaints are not affected by this judgment. ________________________ Employment Judge Pirani 13 March 2018[1]The claimant’s claim for breach of contract succeeds and the respondent is ordered to pay the claimant two weeks’ pay in the net sum of £1,100.00; and[2]The claimant’s remaining claim for the loss of personal clothing and equipment is dismissed because this Tribunal does not have jurisdiction to hear that claim.
