Ms J Harris v Vets Now Emergency Ltd

EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 8002653/2025 Held in Edinburgh on 25 and 26 March 2026 Employment Judge M A Macleod Ms Jade Harris Claimant In Person Vets Now Emergency Limited Respondent Represented by: Mr S Keen - Barrister

JUDGMENT OF THE EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNAL The Judgment of the Employment Tribunal is that the claimant was a self-employed contractor of the respondent, and not an employee nor a worker, and therefore that the claimant’s claim of unfair dismissal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

REASONS

1. The claimant presented a claim to the Employment Tribunal on 3 November 2025, in which she complained that she was unfairly dismissed by the respondent.

2. The respondent submitted an ET3 response in which they resisted the claimant’s claim, and significantly denied that she was an employee of the respondent. They therefore denied that the Tribunal had jurisdiction to hear the claim.
