Case Summary

The claimant complained of unfair dismissal but had been employed for less than two years. The tribunal struck out the complaint as the claimant lacked the statutory qualifying period required by Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.

Why this outcome?

No qualifying employment period

The claimant was employed for less than two years and therefore did not meet the minimum service requirement of two years prescribed by Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 to bring an unfair dismissal claim. The claimant failed to provide an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out.
