Mr Akerele v OCS Group UK Ltd: 1601746/2020
JUDGMENT
[1]The complaints of:a. Unfair dismissal; andb. Failure to pay a redundancy payment are struck out as the Claimant has insufficient service to be eligible to present either claim.[2]The claimant’s remaining claims, for direct race discrimination, seeking notice pay, holiday pay and outstanding wages, remain listed for determination.REASONS
By a letter dated 09 September 2021 the Tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or to request a hearing, as to why the complaint of race discrimination should not be struck out because the claimant had not complied with the Order of the Tribunal dated 01 July 2021. The claimant has failed to make sufficient representations why this should not be done or to request a hearing. The complaint of race discrimination is therefore struck out. The claimant’s remaining claims remain listed for hearing on 26 October 2021. _____________________________ Employment Judge Sharp Date: 13 October 2021 JUDGMENT SENT TO THE PARTIES ON 13 October 2021 ........................................................................ ........................................................................
