Case Summary

The claimant brought claims for unfair constructive dismissal, automatically unfair constructive dismissal, whistleblowing detriment, and discrimination against Welsh Government. The tribunal dismissed all claims for want of jurisdiction as they were presented out of time, finding it reasonably practicable to present the dismissal and whistleblowing claims earlier and neither just nor equitable to extend time for discrimination claims. The unlawful deductions claim was dismissed upon the claimant's withdrawal.

Why this outcome?

Out of time

The claims were dismissed because they were presented out of time. For the unfair dismissal and whistleblowing claims, it was reasonably practicable for them to have been presented within the statutory time limit. For the discrimination claims, the tribunal exercised its discretion not to extend time as it was neither just nor equitable to do so.
