Mrs H S Anderson v Marks and Spencer plc: 2407390/2024
JUDGMENT
[1]The effective date of termination was 10 August 2024.[2]The time limit for submitting the complaint of unfair dismissal in accordance with section 111 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was 9 November 2024.[3]The time limit for submitting the complaints of direct age discrimination and discrimination arising from disability in accordance with section 123 of the Equality Act 2010 was 9 November 2024.[4]The claimant started the ACAS Early Conciliation process on 18 November 2024 and received the Certificate on 20 November 2024. The ET1 form was submitted on 8 December 2024 and therefore all complaints are out of time.[5]The Tribunal has determined that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to submit the ET1 form within the prescribed time limit. As a result, the complaint of unfair dismissal is dismissed.[6]The Tribunal has determined that it would be just and equitable to extend time for the purposes of the discrimination complaints and those complaints will be determined at the final hearing which will take place from 7 April 2026 – 10 April 2026.
