Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal unanimously held that the claimants listed in Part I of the Schedule succeeded under s.189 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 against Jehu Group Limited (in administration) for failure to comply with s.188. It ordered Jehu Group Limited to pay remuneration by way of protective award for a protected period of 90 days beginning on 21 October 2022.

The Part I claimants' claims against Jehu Project Services Limited (in administration) and Waterstone Homes Limited (in administration) were dismissed. The Tribunal made the corresponding finding for the claimants listed in Part II of the Schedule in relation to Jehu Project Services Limited (in administration), holding that their s.189 complaint succeeded and ordering the same 90-day protected period beginning on 21 October 2022.

The Part II claimants' claims against Jehu Group Limited (in administration) and Waterstone Homes Limited (in administration) were dismissed. The written record states that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker’s Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 apply to the awards, and that reasons for the judgment were given orally at the hearing rather than set out in written reasons.

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.
