Skylark Lasers Ltd

Case Summary

The claimant, appointed as CEO of Skylark Lasers Limited in June 2023, presented claims of unfair dismissal and discrimination on grounds of age and disability following his resignation in November 2024. The respondent raised a capability procedure against the claimant in August 2024 and rejected his subsequent appeal. The tribunal unanimously dismissed all of the claimant's claims.

The tribunal found that the claimant had not been dismissed but had instead voluntarily resigned following the rejection of his appeal against a capability warning. The discrimination claims were found not to be well-founded on the evidence presented, and certain complaints fell outside the time limits prescribed by the Equality Act 2010.
