Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the claimant claimed the right to a redundancy payment. It stated that section 155 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years or more of employment for an employee to have the right to a redundancy payment.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. After the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the redundancy payment claim should not be struck out and did not provide an acceptable reason, the claim for a redundancy payment was struck out; the judgment stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected.

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.
