Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment in which the tribunal found that the complaint that Bleiker’s Smoke House Limited (in Administration) failed to comply with section 188 or section 188A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 was well founded. The decision covers Ms K Zielaskowska and the other claimants listed in the schedule to the judgment.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay remuneration calculated in accordance with section 190 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 to the claimants personally for the protected period. The protected period was identified as 29 April 2022 to 27 July 2022.
The judgment also records that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker’s Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 apply. It notes the duty to provide information to the Secretary of State under regulation 6 and that regulation 7 postpones the award so that a recoupment notice may be served under regulation 8.
