Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMs C Mendez Lopez brought a claim against Mr Akbar Taghiravanji for outstanding holiday pay. Employment Judge Shepherd heard the matter remotely on 5 March 2021, with the parties appearing in person, and the tribunal recorded that the hearing took place by video because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The tribunal held that the outstanding holiday pay claim was not presented within the time limit in the Working Time Regulations 1998. On that basis, it dismissed the claim because the tribunal had no jurisdiction to hear it. No award of compensation or other remedy was made.
