Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent failed to present a valid response on time, so the tribunal determined the claim under Rule 21. It found that Miss G Keenan had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £1,682.80. The calculation was based on 11 years' service and gross weekly pay of £168.28, with 2 years counted at half a week's pay and 9 years counted at one week's pay.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had not paid the claimant's accrued but untaken holiday entitlement and ordered £842.46. It calculated that sum from a 15.75-hour working week, a 5.6-week annual leave entitlement, accrual at 1/12 per calendar month, 11 months of employment in the final year, and an hourly rate of £10.42. The total amount ordered was £2,525.26.
The judgment noted that the claimant would be responsible for any tax liabilities arising if the gross award was paid without deduction at source. It also recorded an additional holiday pay element raised at the hearing on 24 April 2024, but said it was unclear how the figures had been reached and invited the claimant to provide her calculation within 14 days if she wished to pursue that element.

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.
