Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal found that the respondent's premises at Bee House, 140 Eastern Avenue, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, OX14 4SB constituted an establishment for the purpose of s188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.

The Tribunal found there was no recognised trade union or appointed or elected employee representatives for the purpose of s188(1B). It upheld the complaint that the respondent failed to comply with a requirement of s188 TULR(C)A and made a protective award in favour of the claimant.

The respondent was ordered to pay remuneration for a protected period of 90 days, or 12.86 weeks, beginning on 28 March 2023, in the amount of £6,430.

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.
