Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Tsamados, sitting alone at London South on 10 January 2022, heard the claimant in person and recorded that the respondent did not attend and had filed no response. The only judgment recorded was that Mrs Debra Bray had been made redundant with effect from 30 September 2020 and was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment from NCM Catering Ltd.
The tribunal calculated the payment by reference to 4 complete years of service from 16 October 2016 to 30 September 2020, the claimant's age of 59 at the effective date of termination, and gross weekly earnings of £246.30. The judgment states that the hourly rate was £8.21 and that this was based on 30 hours per week.
Applying a multiplier of 1.5 for each complete year of service, the tribunal awarded £1,477.80. No other claims or remedy components are recorded in the written judgment. The judge noted that oral reasons had been given at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in time.

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.
