Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

Before Employment Judge Porter sitting with Tribunal Members F Paton and J Grier in Edinburgh, the tribunal found that the claimant was unfairly dismissed. It also found that the claimant's complaint presented under ss13 and 26 of the Equality Act 2010 was well founded. The claimant's claims for holiday pay and notice pay succeeded in part, while the claim for unpaid wages was dismissed.

The respondents were ordered jointly and severally to pay £726.93 as a basic award, £864 as a compensatory award, £300 for loss of statutory rights, £66.60 gross holiday pay, £56 net notice pay, and £7,000 compensation for injury to feelings together with £1,566.50 interest. The Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker's Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 were said to apply. The prescribed element was £864 for the period 14 August 2019 to 29 March 2022, and the total award was £10,580.

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.
