Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Leach, sitting alone at Manchester by CVP on 21 August 2025, heard the claimant's complaints against Wycliffe Hotel Limited. The respondent did not attend and entered no appearance. The judgment was given orally and written reasons will not be provided unless requested within 14 days.
The tribunal found three complaints well-founded. The breach of contract complaint in respect of notice pay succeeded, with damages of £3,334.40 calculated using gross pay to reflect the likelihood of tax on Post Employment Notice Pay. The holiday pay complaint succeeded as an unauthorised deduction from wages, with £98.36 ordered as a gross sum. The complaint that the respondent had breached contract by failing to pay a contractual redundancy payment also succeeded, and under section 163 Employment Rights Act 1996 the claimant's entitlement was determined at £3,334.40.
The respondent was ordered to pay a total of £6,767.16. A notice under Article 12 of the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 was attached, identifying 3 October 2025 as the relevant decision day, 4 October 2025 as the calculation day, and 8% per annum as the stipulated rate of interest.

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.
