Mr S Shirazi v Greater Manchester Football Club: 2406044/2022
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 Phil Allen Date: 22 November 2022[1]The respondent made unauthorised deductions from wages by failing to pay the claimant the full amount of wages due for the period 14 February 2022 to 13 August 2002 and the respondent is ordered to pay to the claimant the total gross sum of £5088.36.[2]The respondent was in breach of contract by not reimbursing the claimant for the £10 fee for the DBS check and is ordered to pay to the claimant the sum of £10 in damages for this breach.[3]The complaint of breach of contract in relation to failure to provide employability support is not well founded.
