Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal, sitting alone before Employment Judge Smith on 31 August 2022, dealt with three issues. The Claimant’s claim for compensation for accrued but untaken annual leave was dismissed because the Tribunal held it was reasonably practicable for that claim to have been presented within the relevant statutory time period, so the Tribunal had no jurisdiction to determine it.
The Tribunal found that the Claimant was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment as at the relevant date of 30 September 2021 and ordered the Respondent to pay £884.80. It also allowed the Claimant’s application to amend her claim form to add a claim for notice pay.
The amended notice pay claim succeeded. The Tribunal awarded damages for breach of contract in the net sum of £724. The judgment therefore recorded a total monetary award of £1,608.80 across the successful redundancy and notice pay claims.

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.
