Claimant v Royal Mail Group Limited
Outcome
Claimant fails
Facts
Mr Ghuman brought an employment tribunal claim against Royal Mail Group Limited. After filing his claim, he applied to amend it to include complaints of disability discrimination. A preliminary hearing was held to determine whether the amendment application should be allowed.
Decision
The tribunal refused the claimant's application to amend his claim to include disability discrimination complaints. The judgment does not provide detailed reasoning for this refusal.
Practical note
Amendment applications to add new claims are discretionary and must satisfy the tribunal's criteria, which may include consideration of timing, prejudice, and whether the new claim arises from the same facts.
