Case Summary

This is a preliminary hearing to determine whether Adam Taylor and Theresa Claase are comparable full-time workers for the purposes of the claimant's part-time workers complaint under the 2000 Regulations. The claimant, a yellow school bus driver, sought to compare himself with stage carriage drivers employed by First West Yorkshire Limited. The tribunal found Adam Taylor to be a comparable full-time worker within the meaning of Regulation 2.

Why this outcome?

The tribunal determined that Adam Taylor satisfied the requirements of Regulation 2 as a comparable worker to the claimant, being employed under the same type of contract and engaged in the same or broadly similar work despite the different job categories (stage carriage driver versus yellow school bus driver).
