Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed Mr Harris's unfair dismissal claim. No separate reasons are set out in this judgment beyond the formal disposition of that claim.
The tribunal upheld a claim for a protective award arising from a failure to consult within the meaning of section 188 TULRCA 1992. It awarded two weeks' pay, stated to run from the date of termination on 24 April 2020 until 10 March 2020, in the sum of £1,842.00 gross.
The tribunal also upheld Mr Harris's breach of contract claim for notice pay. It found that net notice pay due was £3,136.00, that £775.60 had already been received from the Insolvency Service, and that the remaining balance payable by the respondent was £2,360.40 net. In addition, the tribunal found that £3,136.00 net had been unlawfully deducted from wages.
The tribunal further found that holiday pay outstanding on termination was owed in the sum of £383.20 gross. It then ordered payment of £1,842.00 gross for the protective award, £2,360.40 net for notice pay, £3,136.00 net for unpaid wages, and £383.00 gross for holiday pay, and recorded a total amount payable of £7,722.04.

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.
