Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The respondent stated that it did not contest the claimant's claim for a protective award. The tribunal issued judgment under rule 21 without a hearing, finding the complaint of failure to comply with section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 well-founded.

The tribunal found that the respondent proposed to make 34 redundancies at its Manchester Trafford Solus site and did not fully inform and consult with the claimant as required. It found there was no proper warning or consultation and that no employee representatives were elected or appointed for consultation as required under section 188A.

The tribunal made a protective award under section 189 for the maximum protected period of 90 days beginning on 15 April 2020. The judgment stated that the recoupment regulations applied and did not specify a monetary amount.

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.
