Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Gray, sitting at Southampton by video on 23 January 2025, heard the claim in the respondent's absence; the respondent did not attend and was not represented, no response having been received. The Claimant appeared in person. The tribunal found that the Claimant's complaints of unfair dismissal, pregnancy or maternity discrimination, for a redundancy payment, breach of contract (for notice pay) and holiday pay all succeeded.
The Claimant was awarded the amounts she claimed: a redundancy payment of £781.84, calculated on the basis of 2 complete years' service from 8 December 2021 to 31 March 2024, age 25 at the date of dismissal, and gross weekly pay of £390.92; one month's contractual notice pay of £1,694 gross; and accrued but untaken holiday pay of £686.44 net, representing 10 days at a net daily rate of £68.644. Reasons were given orally at the hearing and written reasons will not be provided unless requested within 14 days.

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.
