Case Summary
The claimant, aged 68, was dismissed on 5 September 2023 for unauthorised leave and failure to respond to managers. He did not commence ACAS Early Conciliation until 1 March 2024, presenting his claims over three months out of time. The tribunal heard an application to extend the time limit, with the claimant arguing health conditions caused by job loss, wife's health issues, and bereavement prevented earlier presentation.
