Miss D Lewis v Bury Football Club Company Limited (The) — 2020

The tribunal determined three claims on the papers under Rule 21. It found that Miss D Lewis had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £919.52. The judgment stated that this was a net sum, calculated from the claimant's gross pay because the tribunal considered it likely that tax would be payable on receipt as Post Employment Notice Pay.

The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and that she was entitled to a redundancy payment of £919.52. It further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £788.16 for that element. The bottom-line award on the judgment was therefore £2,627.20.

The same judgment recorded that the complaints of unauthorised deduction from wages in respect of arrears of pay and unfair dismissal were to proceed to a hearing on a later date unless withdrawn, so those claims were not finally determined in this decision. The attached notice also explained the tribunal interest regime, but no separate interest sum was recorded in the judgment itself.
