Facts
Ms Furtado brought an employment claim against Do & Co Event & Airline Catering Limited in 2021. The claim was not actively pursued. On 6 January 2025, the tribunal ordered the claimant to make representations or request a hearing as to why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant failed to respond to this order.
Decision
The tribunal struck out the claim on the basis that it had not been actively pursued. The claimant failed to make representations or request a hearing as ordered, resulting in the claim being dismissed.
Practical note
Claimants must actively pursue their claims and respond to tribunal orders, or face strike-out for non-pursuit even without a hearing.
