Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing on 28 October 2021 before Employment Judge McNeill QC, the tribunal refused the claimants' without-notice application to add Mr Christopher Wakeling as a party. The respondent did not appear. The claim concerned protective awards under section 189 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.
The tribunal found the claimants' applications for protective awards to be well-founded and declared that all claimants were entitled to a protective award. It fixed the award period at six weeks for each claimant.
The judgment then set out individual awards for five named claimants: Ms Anna Olszanska, Ms M. Klimanskyte, Ms J. Levinskaite, Ms M. Sienkiewicz and Mr M. Simao. The amounts recorded were £3,415.38, £3,415.38, £4,038.48, £3,672.00 and £3,360.00 respectively.
For the remaining claimants represented by Unionline, and for Mr Rafalia, Mr Roqi and Mr Swieconek, the tribunal directed that calculations of six weeks' pay be provided to the administrator and to the tribunal so that further judgments for the relevant amounts could be prepared and promulgated.

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.
