Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal issued judgment under rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 because no response had been presented to the claim. On the available material, Employment Judge M Whitcombe determined the claim without a hearing on the papers.
The tribunal held that the claimant, Mr R H Mortimer, had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice. It ordered the respondent, Resolve PHB Ltd, to pay damages of £6,404.52 net, stated to be 12 weeks at £533.71 per week.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £18,020.00. The figure was broken down in the judgment as 20 weeks in total, comprising 13 weeks at £1,020 and 7 weeks at £680.
In addition, the tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £2,040.00 gross, calculated as 15 days at £136.00 per day. No separate award of interest, basic award, compensatory award, or injury to feelings was recorded in the judgment.

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.
