Claimant v Teleperformance Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the Respondent did not fail to comply with its duty to make reasonable adjustments pursuant to Sections 20 & 21 Equality Act 2010. The claims were dismissed as not well founded.
Facts
Robert Taylor brought a disability discrimination claim against Teleperformance Limited, his employer, alleging a failure to make reasonable adjustments. The claimant also sought to amend the list of issues at the hearing, which application was dismissed by the tribunal. The hearing took place remotely over three days in May 2025.
Decision
The tribunal dismissed both the claimant's application to amend the list of issues and the substantive claims of failure to make reasonable adjustments. The tribunal found the reasonable adjustments claims were not well founded, ruling in favour of the respondent employer.
Practical note
Self-represented claimants in disability discrimination cases must ensure their reasonable adjustments claims are properly particularised and substantiated to succeed; late amendments to expand the scope of issues will not be permitted without good reason.
