Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that Mr R Hancox's contract of employment was summarily terminated on 23 March 2020, but that he was entitled to 12 weeks' notice to bring the contract to an end. On that basis, the tribunal upheld a claim for wrongful dismissal.
The judgment recorded that, in addition to the 12 weeks' pay in lieu of notice already paid, the respondent was liable for damages reflecting what the claimant would have received during the contractual notice period. Those damages were assessed by reference to two items only: loss of 12 weeks' gym membership, valued at £75, and loss of workplace pension contributions at 3% of gross salary for 12 weeks, valued at £346.15.
The tribunal ordered Cloud2 Limited to pay £421.15 in total by 26 January 2021. Reasons were given orally at the hearing, so no written reasons were issued beyond the written record of decision.

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.
