<p>HMCTS does not hold separate data on the number of wrongful dismissal claims.</p><p>Data
on the proportion of claims for unfair dismissal which were successful at employment
tribunals for each of the past ten years is held in the published stats up to March
2021.</p><p>The ‘Unfair Dismissal’ table ET 3 gives a breakdown of the outcomes by
proportion: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/tribunals-statistics-quarterly-july-to-september-2023/tribunal-statistics-quarterly-july-to-september-2023"
target="_blank">Tribunal Statistics Quarterly: July to September 2023 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)</a>.</p><p>The
table below details the overall number of successful unfair dismissal claims by Financial
Year from 2014-2015 to 2020-2021 only.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Financial

01 April to 31 March</p><p>2. Unfair dismissal: Includes Unfair dismissal after exercising
or claiming a statutory right. Unfair dismissal on grounds of capability, conduct
or some other general reason including the result of a transfer of an undertaking
on grounds of capability, conduct or some other general reason including the result
of a transfer of an undertaking and Unfair dismissal in connection to a lock out,
strike or other industrial action.</p><p>Publication of Employment Tribunal by jurisdiction
ceased from April 2021 when Employment Tribunals moved to an interim database with
limited management information. Employment Tribunals are now in the process of transitioning
to a new case management system and work is in hand as part of the HMCTS data strategy
to reintroduce the publication of Jurisdictional Outcome information at the end of
this calendar year.</p><p>Data is taken from a live management information system
and can change over time, as such the data may differ slightly to that of the official
published stats as this data was run on a different date. Although care is taken when
processing and analysing the data, the details are subject to inaccuracies inherent
in any large-scale case management system and is the best data that is available.</p>
