  • The above data was generated from information stored on the online application system.
  • It is not used for internal or external purposes; therefore, the details are subject to inaccuracies, it is however the only/best data available
  • Completion of the diversity questionnaire is not mandatory.
  • We cannot provide information from 1 April 2020, as that information forms a subset of Employment Tribunal data that is part of Ministry of Justice’s (MoJ) Official Statistics output, which will be published later in 2020 (statistics relating to April to June 2020 is due for publication in September 2020).
