EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 4109076/2021 Mr W Anderson
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment, with no response presented by the respondent. On the available material, Employment Judge David Hoey found that Mr W Anderson was dismissed by reason of redundancy on 27 October 2020.
The tribunal accepted that the claimant had 36 full years' service at the date of dismissal. It calculated the redundancy payment by capping service at 20 years, then applying 13 years at 1.5 weeks' pay and 7 years at 1 week's pay, giving 26.5 weeks' pay.
Using a capped week's pay of £538, the tribunal found that the claimant was entitled to a redundancy payment of £14,257.00. The hearing listed for 23 June 2021 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.
