Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued on 02 July 2022. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and the Employment Judge determined the claim under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The listed hearing on 13 April 2023 was cancelled.
The tribunal found that Carolyn Jerram was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £6,344.88. The figure was calculated by reference to 12 weeks' notice after 8 years' service, using a weekly net wage of £528.74.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £6,852.00. That sum was calculated using a gross weekly wage of £687.50, the claimant's age of 52, and 8 years' service at the date of dismissal. In addition, the respondent was ordered to pay £951.73 for 9 days of unused holiday entitlement, calculated at £105.75 per day. The total award was £14,148.61.

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.
