Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBecause no response was presented, the Employment Judge issued judgment on the available material under rule 21. Mr D Gower succeeded on a notice claim: the tribunal found he had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and ordered damages of £4,080.96 gross, described as 12 weeks' pay.
The tribunal also found that he was dismissed by reason of redundancy and entitled to a redundancy payment of £6,631.56, calculated by reference to his age of 58, 13 years' service and gross weekly wage of £340.08. In addition, it found the respondent had failed to pay holiday entitlement and ordered £1,024.24 gross for three weeks of accrued but untaken leave. The hearing listed for 26 March was cancelled.

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.
