Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMelissa Grove brought claims against Recyclabox Limited (t/a Spring) for unauthorised deduction of wages, redundancy pay, and breach of contract in relation to notice pay. The case was heard remotely at London Central on 9 October 2024 before Employment Judge Plowright sitting alone. The respondent was represented by its director, Mr T Williams, and the claimant appeared in person.
The tribunal found that all three claims were well founded and succeeded. It ordered the respondent to pay gross sums of £3,050.70 for arrears of pay, £2,100 for redundancy pay, and £10,769.23 for notice pay under the breach of contract claim. The total gross award was £15,919.95, and the judgment states that the claimant is responsible for any tax and National Insurance due on that sum.
