Miss C Francis
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued in the London South Employment Tribunals on 1 December 2022. The respondent stated that it did not seek to defend the claim, and the Employment Judge decided that a determination could properly be made under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
The tribunal found that Miss C Francis was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment. The judgment records that the effective date of termination was 31 August 2021, that the claimant was aged 62, and that she had 26 complete years of service.
The tribunal calculated the redundancy payment by applying a multiplier of 1.5 weeks for each year of service aged 41 or older and using a gross weekly pay figure at the then statutory maximum of £544.00. On that basis, the tribunal awarded £16,320.00 gross in total.
The hearing listed for 1 June 2023 was cancelled following the rule 21 determination.

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.
