Claimant v Leisure Employment Services Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal heard evidence over two days and determined that the dismissal was fair. The judgment does not provide detailed written reasons as it was delivered orally, but the tribunal rejected the claimant's claim after considering the evidence presented by both parties.
The tribunal found that the respondent did not discriminate against the claimant on grounds of disability. After hearing evidence from both sides over two days, the tribunal concluded the discrimination claim was not established.
