Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Leeds on 14 and 15 June 2023, Employment Judge Moxon found that Mr G MacDonald had been constructively dismissed by Woodhouse Barry (Construction) Limited (in creditors voluntary liquidation) and that the dismissal was unfair. The respondent name was amended by consent.
On remedy, the tribunal reduced the basic award by 35% on account of the claimant's conduct and reduced any compensatory award by 35% for contributory fault. It found that the claimant had suffered no financial losses consequent upon dismissal, so the compensatory award was limited to £325 for loss of statutory rights only, and the total award was £8,861.45.

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.
