EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 4104879/2020 & others as per attached scheduleMr C Littlejohn
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response was presented to the claims. The employment judge noted that the respondent was in administration and that the judgment was issued on the available material under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013. The claimants had been notified on or around 18 June 2020 that their employment was ending by reason of redundancy, and the tribunal found that no consultation or notice had been given before termination.
The tribunal found that the respondent dismissed more than 20 employees by reason of redundancy within a 90-day period and that all of those employees were based at the same establishment. On that basis, the complaint that the respondent failed to comply with section 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 was held to be well founded.
A protective award was made for the former employees working at the respondent’s establishment at The Grill on the Corner, 21-25 Bothwell Street, Glasgow, G2 6NL. The protected period was set at 90 days beginning on 18 June 2020. The judgment does not set out a monetary figure for the award in the extracted text.

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.
