Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge McLaren, sitting at East London Hearing Centre on 17 January 2020, found that Mr E Marley was unfairly dismissed by Goldmark Master Craftsman Limited. The judgment states that there was no fair reason for the dismissal and that the procedure followed was also unfair.
The tribunal awarded a basic award of £754.81 based on the claimant's age and length of service. It also awarded a compensatory award for 5 weeks and 3 days covering the period from 15 April to 29 May 2019, quantified at £1,653.92, and then uplifted that amount by 25% for failure to follow the ACAS Code, adding £413.48 and producing a compensatory award of £2,067.40.
In addition, the tribunal awarded two weeks' net pay of £590 for failure to be accompanied by a colleague. The judgment does not separately identify the legal label for that payment, but it was treated as a separate head of compensation in the total award. The total awarded was £3,412.21.

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.
