JUDGMENT

The judgment of the Tribunal is as follows: Strike out of part of claim[1]The complaint that any delays in addressing the claimant’s grievance was an act of victimisation is struck out under Employment Tribunal Rule 37(1)(a) because it has no reasonable prospect of success.[2]The rest of the victimisation claim – that there was a failure to properly consider the claimant’s grievance – is not struck-out. Just and equitable time limit extended[3]The claims of direct disability discrimination, discrimination arising from disability, disability-related harassment and a failure to make reasonable adjustments were not presented within the applicable time limit, but it is just and equitable to extend the time limit. These claims will therefore proceed. Case number: 2201678/2024
