Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was issued under Rule 21 after the respondent, Waterside Community Leisure Ltd, failed to enter a response. Employment Judge R. Lewis therefore ordered the respondent to pay the claimant, Mrs Z Smulkstiene, the sums claimed that were set out in the order.
The tribunal awarded redundancy pay of £8,608. It also awarded £2,250 gross for one month’s salary not paid, £6,750 gross for 12 weeks’ notice pay, and £882.69 gross for accrued holiday.
The total sum ordered was £18,490.69. The judgment does not set out a liability analysis, legal tests, or a split between the amounts beyond the four listed heads of claim.

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.
