Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the remote hearing on 1 July 2021 before Employment Judge Lang, with lay members Mr A Kapur and Mrs F Betts, the tribunal found that Mr M Nejman’s complaint of automatically unfair dismissal under Regulation 7(1) of the TUPE Regulations 2006 was well founded. The respondent was ordered to pay a compensatory award of £22,569.55, expressed as relating to the period from 1 September 2019 to 31 December 2020.
The tribunal also upheld the complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages and ordered payment of £830.42 gross in respect of August 2019. The complaint of failure to inform and consult under Regulation 15 TUPE 2006 was dismissed.
The complaints for holiday pay and a redundancy payment were dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant. The monetary awards recorded in the judgment total £23,399.97, made up of the two sums expressly awarded by the tribunal.

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.
