EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 8001542/2025 Employment Judge: N M Hosie Mrs D Neish v Moray Fire Protection Ltd — 2025

No response was presented to the claim, and Employment Judge N M Hosie issued judgment on the available material under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The judgment records that the tribunal ordered the respondent, Moray Fire Protection Ltd, to make three separate payments to the claimant, Mrs D Neish.

First, the tribunal found that the respondent had unlawfully withheld wages and ordered payment of £924.48 gross, calculated by reference to 9 days at 8 hours per day at £12.84 per hour. Second, it found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £1,078.56 gross. The notice calculation is internally expressed as £359.52 per week x 3 weeks, although the judgment also refers to '12 weeks' pay'.

Third, the tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and awarded a gross redundancy payment of £1,617.84, calculated on the basis of £359.52 per week x 4.5 weeks. The judgment also states that the respondent may deduct income tax and employee National Insurance Contributions where required by law, and remit those sums to HMRC before paying the balance to the claimant.
