Mr G Flynn v Panacea Healthcare Group Ltd — 2025

This was a Rule 22 judgment in which no response had been presented, so Employment Judge I McFatridge determined the claim on the available material. The tribunal made no discrimination findings and instead addressed pay, holiday pay, notice pay, and redundancy payment. The respondent, Panacea Healthcare Group Ltd, was ordered to pay all four sums claimed.

The tribunal found that the respondent had unlawfully withheld wages and awarded £1,014.40 gross, calculated by reference to £15.85 per hour for 8 hours over 8 days. It also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and awarded £1,775.20 gross, calculated on 112 hours at £15.85 per hour.

On termination, the tribunal held that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £1,268.00 gross, described as 2 weeks' pay and calculated on 80 hours at £15.85 per hour. It also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £1,902.00, calculated on 3 weeks at 40 hours per week at £15.85 per hour. The judgment also states that the respondent may deduct tax and employee National Insurance contributions, if required by law, before payment and remit any such deductions to HMRC.
