Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that the claimant's breach of contract claim for notice pay was well-founded. It found that she was entitled to 12 weeks' statutory notice and ordered payment at the weekly rate of £156.60, producing an award of £1,879.20. It also upheld the claim for unauthorised deduction from wages and ordered repayment of £156.60.
The claimant succeeded on unfair dismissal. The tribunal ordered a basic award of £4,071.60 and a compensatory award of £350, giving a total unfair dismissal award of £4,421.60. It also found that the claim for a statutory redundancy payment was well-founded, but made no separate compensation on that claim because a basic award had already been ordered for unfair dismissal.
Two further statutory claims were upheld. The tribunal found a failure to provide written reasons for dismissal and awarded £313.20. It also found that the claimant had never been provided with a written statement under section 1 or section 4 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 and made an additional award of £313.20 under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002. The total award ordered against the respondent was £7,083.80.

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.
