Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Claimant, Mr A Watcham, worked for the Respondent as Head of Corporate Finance from 9 May 2022 until 31 August 2023 at a salary of £8,750 gross per month. He brought claims for non-payment of two months' wages, unspecified accrued holiday pay, shares and a severance package. The Respondent did not file a response, did not engage with the Tribunal's communications, and did not appear at the hearing, so the case proceeded in its absence. The Tribunal heard evidence from the Claimant and considered his payslips for July and August 2023, together with a letter of termination dated 23 August 2023 terminating his contract on 31 August 2023.

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.
