Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal found that the claimant's claim that the respondent failed to comply with the requirements of section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 in respect of his dismissal was well founded.
The Tribunal ordered the respondent to pay a protective award under section 189(3) of the 1992 Act, equivalent to remuneration for 90 days beginning on 3 August 2021. No monetary amount was stated in the judgment.
The Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker's Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 apply. The respondent is not required to make payment until it has received a recoupment notice from the Secretary of State or notification that no such notice will be served.

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.
