Facts
Mr Jilge brought a claim for unfair dismissal against Sysco GB Limited, a logistics company. The case was heard over two days before Employment Judge Shotter in the Wales tribunal. The claimant appeared in person, supported by his wife, while the respondent was represented by counsel Ms Kaye.
Decision
The tribunal dismissed the unfair dismissal claim, finding it was not well-founded. The tribunal gave its reasons orally at the hearing on 20 November 2025, and the judgment was sent to the parties on 5 December 2025.
Practical note
A self-represented claimant faced a represented employer and lost an unfair dismissal claim after a two-day merits hearing, with the tribunal providing only oral reasons.
