Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment dated 9 February 2021, with Employment Judge Lewis sitting at East London Hearing Centre. The claimant did not attend and the respondent did not attend and had not entered a response. On that basis, the tribunal determined the claims on the material before it and entered judgment for the claimant.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £3,415.38, calculated as 8 weeks at £426.92 per week. It also found that she had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £3,415.38, calculated as 8 x £426.92. The judgment records that she had 8 complete years of employment and was over the age of 18 and under the age of 41 during that period.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and awarded £1,878.45, calculated as 22 days at £85.38 per day. The total sum ordered payable forthwith was £8,709.21.

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.
