Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 Employment Tribunal judgment in Mr G Whiston's case against Haigh Energy Services Ltd and Mr C Aspinall. The tribunal found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, and ordered the first respondent to pay damages of £350.52. It also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £1,730.75.
The tribunal further found that the first respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £423.06. The judgment records that the claims against the second respondent, Mr Aspinall, were dismissed because they had no reasonable prospect of success, the substantive claims having succeeded against the claimant's employer.
The total sum ordered by the judgment is £2,504.33. A separate notice under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 states that, if the sums are not paid within 14 days after the written judgment was sent, interest would accrue at the stipulated rate of 8% from 28 August 2020.

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.
