Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records that, following an email from Employment Judge Dawson dated 8 April 2025, the respondent made no objection. On that basis, the claimant, Mr R Roache, was awarded sums for notice pay, unpaid wages, a redundancy payment, and unpaid holiday pay against Direct Care Children’s Home Limited.
The individual awards were £1,000 for notice pay, £240 for unpaid wages, £830.77 for redundancy payment, and £1,250 for unpaid holiday pay. The judgment states that the total payable to the claimant was £3,320.77.
The extracted text does not set out substantive findings on liability beyond the respondent's failure to object, and it does not record any separate legal reasoning or legal test. The judgment was approved by Employment Judge Self on 12 May 2025 and sent to the parties on 23 May 2025.

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.
