Claimant v Krystal CSG Limited

The tribunal found that the claimant was treated unfavourably by both the first and second respondents because of her protected characteristic of pregnancy. The claim under Section 18 of the Equality Act 2010 was well-founded, indicating direct evidence that the unfavourable treatment was causally linked to the pregnancy.

The tribunal concluded that the claimant was automatically unfairly dismissed by reason of her pregnancy. This claim under section 99 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was well-founded against the first respondent, establishing that the dismissal was directly connected to pregnancy, which is automatically unfair under the statute.

The tribunal found that the claimant suffered an unlawful deduction of wages in the sum of £301.63 net. The claim under section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was well-founded, and the first respondent was ordered to pay the unpaid wages to the claimant.
