Claimant v Total Home Delivery Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The respondent did not present a response to the claim. The tribunal determined the claim on the papers pursuant to rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Rules 2024, finding the claim for redundancy payment well founded and calculating the payment in accordance with ERA 1996 section 162.
Facts
The claimant made a claim for redundancy payment against Total Home Delivery Limited. The respondent failed to present a response to the claim. The claimant provided further information by correspondence to the tribunal to enable a determination to be made on the papers.
Decision
The tribunal determined the claim under rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Rules 2024 without a hearing. The claim for redundancy payment was found to be well founded and the respondent was ordered to pay £19,950 calculated in accordance with statutory provisions.
