Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Phil Allen gave a Rule 21 judgment in favour of Mrs J Mason. The tribunal found that the respondent had dismissed the claimant in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £863.20. It also found a further breach of contract for failure to pay pension contributions due and awarded £119.51.
The tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £971.10. It further found that the respondent had failed to pay holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £667.32.
Finally, the tribunal found that the respondent had failed to provide a statement of terms and conditions of employment and, under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002, ordered the higher amount of £863.20. The hearing listed for 16 March 2021 was cancelled. The attached interest notice explained that unpaid sums would carry interest under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 if not paid within 14 days after the judgment was sent, with the calculation day beginning on 13 February 2021 at 8%.

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.
