Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed Mr D Stubbs's unfair dismissal claim against Express Transport UK Ltd because he lacked the qualifying period required by section 108(1) Employment Rights Act 1996. None of the exceptions applied.
The tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and ordered the respondent to pay £470 in damages. He had not established entitlement to a notice period longer than the statutory minimum. His entitlement to damages was limited to the failure to give notice.
The respondent also failed to provide written itemised pay statements as required by section 8 Employment Rights Act 1996. The claimant did not demonstrate that the respondent made unnotified deductions, and no separate award was recorded for this complaint. The judgment was issued under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2024.

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.
