Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal found that Ms S Kiciuk was unfairly dismissed by Munchkins Restaurants Limited by reason of redundancy with effect from 3 September 2021. It ordered the Respondent to pay a statutory redundancy payment of £10,125, calculated by reference to age 58, 15 years' service and a weekly wage of £450. The Tribunal also recorded that the Claimant could apply for a remedy hearing in relation to further remedy for unfair dismissal, so no compensatory award for that claim was determined in this judgment.
The Tribunal upheld the wrongful dismissal claim because the Claimant was dismissed without notice and awarded £5,400, described as the equivalent of 12 weeks' notice. It also upheld the holiday pay claim, limited to a two-year period under section 23(4B) of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and awarded £5,040 for 11.2 weeks of accrued but untaken holiday, subject to deductions for tax and National Insurance. The hearing listed for 5 and 6 July 2022 was vacated.

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.
