Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal declared that the 70 employees employed by Westex Ltd at its Harlow location were entitled to a declaration that Westex Ltd failed to inform or consult them in respect of redundancies that took place within a 90-day period. Those employees were entitled to a protective award.
No reason was advanced to mitigate the 90-day protective award period. The Tribunal considered it just and equitable to award the maximum period of 90 days, with the protected period beginning on 18 September 2019.
In the corrected reasons, Employment Judge Russell stated that, having regard to the contents of the email and the emails on file, the first dismissals at the Harlow site occurred on 18 September 2019, making that the correct start date for the 90-day protective award period.

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.
