Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal recorded that the Claimant’s employment transferred from S.K. Fruits Limited to S & K Fruit and Veg Ltd by way of a transfer of an undertaking on 18 March 2023. It found that the Claimant was unfairly dismissed by the Second Respondent on 8 April 2023.
The claims under Regulation 13 of the TUPE Regulations 2006 for failure to inform and consult were dismissed. The claims against the First Respondent, S.K. Fruits Limited, were also dismissed.
On remedy, the Tribunal awarded compensation of £6,402.16 against the Second Respondent, payable within 14 days of the judgment being sent. The calculation included a basic award of £875.28, a compensatory award of £5,526.88, and an ACAS Code uplift of 25% within the compensatory figure. The compensatory award was made up of £300 for loss of statutory rights, £3,647.00 for loss of earnings over 25 weeks, £474.50 for loss of pension contributions, and no sums for benefits, job seeking expenses, or future losses.

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.
