Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded no attendance by the claimants and no attendance or appearance by the respondents at the hearing on 4 March 2020 before Employment Judge Johnson.
The tribunal found the claims of the claimants named in the attached schedule under S.189 of the Act to be well founded. It made a protective award for those claimants who were employees dismissed as redundant on 13 February 2019, requiring the employer to pay remuneration for a protected period beginning on 13 February 2019 and lasting 90 days.
The judgment states that the Recoupment Regulations apply. It does not state a monetary total for the protective award or break down any sums by claimant.

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.
