Mr Joseph Jeffreys
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningOn 6 April 2021, Employment Judge Tobin sat alone at the East London Hearing Centre and heard the case remotely by Cloud Video Platform. The respondent, N H Thompson Limited (In Voluntary Liquidation), did not attend or participate. The tribunal recorded that a face-to-face hearing was unnecessary because the relevant matters could be determined remotely.
Mr Joseph Jeffreys succeeded in his claims for unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal, outstanding holiday pay, and breach of the obligation to provide a statement of employment particulars. The judgment states that the unfair dismissal figure included the wrongful dismissal element to avoid double counting, and that the sums claimed were calculated net, so no deduction was to be made for tax or national insurance.
The tribunal awarded a £900 basic award and a £4,571.10 compensatory award for unfair dismissal, together with an ACAS uplift of £1,017.77. It also awarded £999.32 for unpaid holiday pay plus an ACAS uplift of £249.83, and £900 for failure to provide a statement of employment particulars, producing a total net award of £8,638.02.

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.
