The tribunal found that the complaints of direct sex discrimination were not well-founded. The tribunal dismissed all sex discrimination complaints brought by the claimant.
Facts
Maria Riches brought claims against AWC Staff Services Ltd for breach of contract relating to unpaid commission payments on termination of employment and for direct sex discrimination. The claimant appeared in person at a remote video hearing. The respondent was represented by Mr K Wagner, appearing to be an in-house representative.
Decision
Employment Judge C Lewis dismissed both claims. The tribunal found that the breach of contract claim for unpaid commission was not well-founded, and the complaints of direct sex discrimination were also not well-founded.
Practical note
A claimant appearing in person failed to establish either breach of contract for unpaid commission or direct sex discrimination against a staffing services company.
