Mr P Turay v 6Cats UK Limited (in liquidation) and 2 others — 2022

This short judgment was concerned with respondent identity rather than the merits of the substantive employment claims. The tribunal found that the Claimant’s employer was the First Respondent, 6Cats UK Limited (in liquidation), on the basis of his January 2014 written contract with CXC Contracting Limited, the 19 June 2016 letter stating that the employer’s name was changing to 6Cats (UK) Limited with effect from 1 January 2017, and the subsequent payslips. The tribunal therefore recorded that the Claimant’s remaining claims for notice pay, holiday pay, outstanding wages, redundancy payment and unfair dismissal proceeded against the First Respondent only.

The Claim against the Third Respondent, Athona Limited, was withdrawn by the Claimant in full at the hearing and was dismissed on withdrawal. To the extent that a claim had been brought against the Second Respondent, 6Cats International Limited, it was dismissed because the tribunal found that it was not the Claimant’s employer and was not the correct respondent. The judgment does not determine the merits of the substantive claims against the First Respondent and records no monetary award.
