Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr N Barber, was employed by Thameside Taxis Limited from 9 September 2015 until 13 January 2023. At the date of dismissal he was 50 years old and was paid £390.00 gross per week (£329.00 net). The hearing took place on 16 August 2023 before Employment Judge Shore, with no appearance for the respondent.
The tribunal found that the claimant's statutory redundancy payment claim was well-founded and ordered payment of £4,095.00 gross, calculated as 7 weeks at £390.00 per week x 1.5. It also found the breach of contract claim for failure to pay notice pay was well-founded and awarded £2,730.00 in lieu of 7 weeks' notice pay, before deductions for income tax and National Insurance.
The tribunal further upheld the claim for accrued but untaken holiday pay and awarded £195.00, calculated as 2.5 days at £78.00 per day. It also upheld the unlawful deduction from wages claim and ordered payment of £390.00 for the week 14 January 2023 to 21 January 2023, before deductions. The total monetary award set out in the judgment is £7,410.00.

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.
