Number:8002295/2025 Mr J Hill v Adarma Limited (In Administration) — 2025

The Employment Judge issued judgment on the available material under Rule 22 because no response was presented within the applicable time limit. The respondent, Adarma Limited (In Administration), was in administration, and the administrator consented to the continuation of the proceedings by letter dated 02 October 2025. The tribunal found that the claimant was entitled to bring the claim because it concerned a failure relating to the election of employee representatives, and the claimant had been dismissed as redundant.

The tribunal held that the complaint under sections 188 and 188A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 was well founded. It found that the respondent dismissed as redundant more than 100 employees at one establishment within a period of 45 days or less, that the claimant was dismissed as redundant on 14 July 2025, and that the respondent failed to ensure employee representatives were elected and then to consult with them as required.

As a result, the tribunal made a protective award in respect of the claimant as an employee dismissed as redundant at the respondent's establishment at 3rd Floor, Quay 1, 133 Fountainbridge, EH3 9QG. The judgment states that the respondent is ordered to pay remuneration for the protected period, which begins on 14 July 2025 and lasts for 90 days, but it does not specify a monetary figure in the extracted text.
