Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal gave judgment under Rule 21 in chambers. Neither party attended. It found the claimant's claims for unpaid wages, accrued but untaken holiday, and notice pay to be well-founded, and ordered the respondent to pay £1,562.49 gross for unpaid wages, £347.22 for holiday pay, and £520.83 gross for one week's notice pay.

The Tribunal also found the claimant's complaints under section 189 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 well-founded, on the basis of a failure to comply with section 188 of that Act. It made a protective award for the claimant, who was dismissed for redundancy between 14 and 30 September 2023, equivalent to 30 days' remuneration beginning on 30 September 2023. The judgment states that the Recoupment Regulations apply.

The judgment states that the total sum payable within 14 days for the unpaid wages, holiday pay, and notice pay awards is £2,430.54 gross. It does not calculate a separate cash figure for the protective award.

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.
