What you get

More than a single statistic.

Start with a claim type, then examine what each measure shows.

01 / Outcomes

See the different ways claims conclude.

Understand the wider picture from official national figures, then examine outcomes among published decisions. These are different populations, and the report keeps them separate.

Cross-analysis · A core capability

See where the patterns differ.

Compare a region, industry or representation category with the wider claim-type population, where the evidence supports it.

Explore the comparisons

These are comparisons within a primary-claim population, not a claim that every field narrows the whole report.

How benchmarking works

A simpler way to research a complex question.

Build a saved briefing, see the comparison clearly and continue into the underlying research. You remain in control of report generation.

01 · Define

Choose the primary claim

Your primary claim type determines the comparison group. Additional selections can add context or supported comparison slices.

02 · Explore

Bring the evidence together

Review outcomes, award patterns, journeys, companion claims and contrasting views, with sample and coverage limitations where needed.

03 · Continue

Keep researching

Revisit your saved report, open comparable cases, or ask Yerty about the figures it contains. Generation uses one report credit on confirmation.

Research with confidence

Clear comparisons. Clear boundaries.

Useful intelligence means understanding what is being compared. Case Benchmark is designed around historical research, not forecasting an individual's legal position.

Does it find cases identical to mine?

No. The primary claim defines the comparison group. Additional fields such as region, industry or representation can support contrast analysis where sufficient data exist; they don't all narrow the group to identical cases.

Does it include every employment dispute?

No. Research into published decisions cannot include every settlement, withdrawal or unpublished event. Official national figures are used separately for wider system context.

Can I explore the underlying cases?

The report contains a selection of comparable published decisions linking into case pages. Not every aggregate figure has a direct case-level drill-down.

Can Ask Yerty explain my report?

Yes. When opened from a supported saved report, Ask Yerty can use its stored figures as context and explain them. It does not recalculate the report or provide individual case predictions.

How do I access a report?

You can buy a report credit without a subscription or use credits included in eligible paid plans. Review and confirm the report before spending a credit.
