Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Corrigan, sitting alone at London South by video on 13 June 2025, heard the claim of Rob Weller against Whatkitchen.com Limited. The claimant appeared in person; the respondent did not appear and had not entered a response.
The Tribunal found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £1,298.94 net, comprising three weeks' net pay at £418.55 per week and three weeks' employer's pension contribution at £14.43 per week. The Tribunal further found that the claimant had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £2,163.47, and that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement, ordering payment of £863.39 gross subject to tax and National Insurance deductions. The claimant did not pursue the claim for unfair dismissal.
The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £4,327.80 in total, subject to the deductions noted in respect of the holiday pay element. Written reasons were not provided with the judgment and will only be issued if requested within 14 days.

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.
