Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningOn 8 August 2023 at East London Hearing Centre, by CVP, Employment Judge S Knight dealt with the case under Rule 21. Mr Darren Warren and Essex Engineering Solutions Ltd were both unrepresented and not in attendance. The judgment recorded that the respondent made unauthorised deductions from wages, failed to pay redundancy pay, unfairly dismissed the claimant, and wrongfully dismissed the claimant.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £15,960.87 in total. That sum was made up of £1,015.14 for unauthorised deductions from wages, £9,421.50 for redundancy pay, and £5,524.23 for unfair dismissal. For the purposes of the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Benefits) Regulations 1996, the tribunal recorded a total monetary award for unfair dismissal of £5,524.23, a prescribed element of £5,024.23, a relevant period from 9 September 2022 to 8 August 2023, and an excess over the prescribed element of £500.
The judgment also stated that the claimant was wrongfully dismissed, but it did not separately identify a monetary sum for that head of claim in the award section. The listed amounts therefore exhaust the total award stated in the judgment.

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.
