[1]The claimant complains of unfair dismissal.[2]Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have not less than 2 years’ service to make an unfair dismissal complaint.[3]The claimant was employed by the respondent for less than 2 years. Therefore, the claimant is not entitled to bring a complaint of unfair dismissal.[4]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.[5]Accordingly, the complaint of unfair dismissal is struck out. The claimant’s other complaint is not affected by this judgment and shall proceed to a hearing on 19 October 2022.
