Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningIn this consent judgment, the respondent, 4Ground Limited (In Voluntary Liquidation), accepted that it unfairly dismissed Mrs Carrie MacKay and that it dismissed her without giving notice, so the tribunal recorded both the unfair dismissal claim and the breach of contract claim as successful. The unfair dismissal payment was stated to comprise solely a basic award.
The remaining claims were sex discrimination, including equal pay, victimisation, unlawful deductions from wages, and failure to pay accrued but untaken holiday. Those claims were dismissed upon the claimant’s withdrawal, and the judgment does not contain separate liability findings on them.
Remedy was also agreed by consent. The respondent was ordered to pay £2,610 in respect of unfair dismissal and £2,610 gross in respect of notice pay. The ordered payments total £5,220.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
