Claimant v Generis Enterprise Technology Limited

Outcome

Claimant fails

Individual claims

Unfair Dismissalstruck out

The claimant lacked the minimum two years continuous service required by s.108 Employment Rights Act 1996 to bring an unfair dismissal claim. He was employed for less than two years. The claim was therefore struck out for lack of jurisdiction.

Facts

Mr Gray brought a claim for unfair dismissal against two respondents, Generis Enterprise Technology Limited and Camino Partners Limited. He was employed for less than two years. The judgment notes that he has other complaints which are not affected by this judgment.

Decision

The tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal claim on the basis that the claimant lacked the minimum two years continuous service required by s.108 Employment Rights Act 1996. The claimant's other complaints remain live.

Practical note

Ordinary unfair dismissal claims require two years continuous service; this is a jurisdictional threshold that the tribunal will strike out claims that fail to meet even without a full hearing.
