Case Summary

The claimant, a black Systems Engineer, claimed race discrimination and harassment in relation to work allocation, absence investigation procedures, and a recruitment process for a commissioning engineer role, as well as constructive unfair dismissal. The tribunal dismissed all claims, finding no evidence of less favourable treatment on grounds of race and that the claimant's resignation did not result from an actionable breach of contract.

The tribunal found no direct race discrimination in any of the alleged incidents, including work allocation, absence investigation procedures, or the recruitment process for the commissioning engineer role. The tribunal also rejected the harassment claim and the constructive dismissal claim, finding no breach of the implied term of trust and confidence in the employment relationship.
