Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response was presented to the claim. Employment Judge M Whitcombe issued judgment on the available material under rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024.
The tribunal found that W Anderson was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and ordered Jayem Joinery Products Ltd to pay notice damages of £6,941.16 net, calculated as £578.43 for 12 weeks. The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £18,334.50, calculated as £719.00 for 25.5 weeks.
The tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £1,185.60 gross, calculated as 1.6 weeks at £741.00 per week. It made no protective award for failure to elect representatives, inform and consult under sections 188 and 188A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, because fewer than 20 employees were dismissed as redundant at one establishment.

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.
