Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the remedy hearing on 29 June 2020, Employment Judge Andrews ordered Brighton and Sussex University Hospital NHS Trust to pay compensation to Mr J Edwards. The tribunal recorded a basic award of £1,016 and calculated gross compensatory loss at £63,331.01, made up of loss of earnings (£50,217.83), pension loss (£5,468.28), loss of contractual holiday (£6,729.35), expenses (£415.00) and loss of statutory rights (£500.00).
The tribunal deducted £13,915.19 earned through mitigation, leaving compensatory losses of £49,415.82 before applying the statutory cap. The capped compensatory award was £28,615.08, producing a total award of £29,631.08. The Recoupment Regulations applied; the prescribed element was £28,085.54 for the period 19 February 2018 to 29 June 2020, and the amount above the prescribed element was £1,545.54. The claimant's costs application was refused.

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.
