Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the claimant's employment transferred under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 from the second respondent to the first respondent on or about 9 November 2015. On that basis, none of the claims succeeded against the second respondent.
Against the first respondent, the tribunal held that the claimant was unfairly dismissed. It awarded a basic award of £5,868 and a compensatory award of £350, with the compensatory element limited to loss of statutory rights.
The tribunal rejected the statutory redundancy payment claim, recording that there was no additional entitlement to redundancy payment in the circumstances. It also dismissed the claim for outstanding pay in respect of untaken annual leave as not well founded.
The claim for unpaid notice pay succeeded. The tribunal awarded £3,209.60 net as damages for breach of contract. Oral reasons were given at the hearing, and no written reasons were requested.

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.
