Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was an application for interim relief heard by Employment Judge Tsamados sitting alone at London South Croydon by CVP on 11 July 2025. By consent, the tribunal found the claimant's application for interim relief to be well-founded and granted it. An order was made under section 130 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 continuing the claimant's contract of employment from 20 June 2025 until the determination or settlement of the complaint.
By agreement between the parties, the level of pay for the purposes of the continuation order was calculated on the basis of 70 hours per week at the current national minimum wage of £12.21 per hour. The claimant reserved the right to argue at any final hearing that he was contractually entitled to a higher sum by reference to the hourly rate set out in his monthly payslips.
The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £2,049.20 by 25 July 2025 in respect of payments the claimant could reasonably have been expected to earn during past pay periods from 21 June 2025 to 11 July 2025, and to pay £2,732.27 every four weeks from the date of the order until determination or settlement of the complaint.

| Whistleblowing | Interim relief application under s.128 ERA 1996 (in the context of a protected disclosure / automatic unfair dismissal claim). Granted by consent.

| Unfair dismissal | The substantive unfair dismissal claim was not adjudicated in this judgment. The tribunal made an interim relief order continuing the contract of employment pending determination or settlement of the complaint. Outcome therefore recorded as 'other' (interim/interlocutory). | Other | — | — |

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.
