Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal found the claimant’s complaint of unfair dismissal well-founded. The reasons set out a basic award of 17 weeks at £296.04, producing £5,032.47, and a compensatory calculation that included immediate loss, deduction of monies received, pension loss, loss of statutory rights, and a 25% uplift for failure to follow the ACAS Code under section 207A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations Act 1992. The judgment states compensation in the sum of £9,128.00, although the worked calculation at the end of the reasons totals £9,128.43.

The tribunal also found well-founded the claimant’s complaints that the respondent failed to provide written reasons for dismissal and failed to permit accompaniment at the dismissal hearing. Each of those complaints was awarded £557.32. The complaint that itemised pay slips were not provided was also found well-founded, but no award was made in respect of it.

The tribunal further upheld the claimant’s breach of contract complaint for notice pay, awarding £3,552.12. It upheld the Working Time Regulations complaint for holiday pay and awarded £532.87, and it upheld the unlawful deduction from wages complaint and awarded £150.96. No discrimination claims are recorded in the judgment.

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.
