Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Tribunal for Scotland, sitting by telephone conference call on 5 October 2020, heard the claimant in person. The respondent, Therapy Essentials Ltd, was not present and was not represented. The tribunal held that the claimant’s claims for unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal succeeded.
The tribunal ordered a basic award of £2,419.20, notice pay of £1,814.40 for wrongful dismissal, and a compensatory award of £2,769.20 for unfair dismissal. The compensatory award was described as comprising £2,419.20 loss of earnings and £350 for loss of statutory rights.
The judgment also recorded that the prescribed element under the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker's Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 was £2,769.20, and stated that the excess of the total over the prescribed element, £4,583.60, was payable immediately. The written extract does not fully reconcile those figures arithmetically, so the remedy data follows the amounts expressly stated in the judgment.

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.
