Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Manchester on 11 February 2021, Employment Judge Slater recorded that, by consent, Mr W Bent was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £1,200 from TLRT Limited. The tribunal also rejected the unauthorised deduction from wages complaints: the arrears of pay complaint was not well founded, and the holiday pay complaint was not well founded.
The tribunal found that the respondent was in breach of contract because it did not give the claimant one month's notice of termination. No damages were awarded for that breach because the tribunal found the claimant had already received payments exceeding the amount that would otherwise have been payable for notice.
The unfair dismissal complaint was held to be well founded, and the respondent was ordered to pay £1,569.78. The written record also notes that the Recoupment Regulations do not apply to the unfair dismissal compensation, and includes the standard notice on interest under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990.

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.
