Claimant v WK Realisations Ltd (in Administration)
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found the complaint of unfair dismissal to be well-founded and determined the claimant was unfairly dismissed. The respondent company was in administration and did not attend the hearing to defend the claim.
The tribunal found the complaint of breach of contract in relation to notice pay to be well-founded. The claimant was entitled to notice pay which was not provided by the respondent.
The tribunal found the complaint in respect of holiday pay to be well-founded. The claimant was owed accrued but untaken holiday pay at the termination of employment.
Facts
Mrs Wendy Blick brought claims against WK Realisations Ltd which was in administration. The respondent did not attend the hearing. The claimant represented herself in person and gave evidence regarding her unfair dismissal, notice pay, and holiday pay claims.
Decision
The tribunal found all three claims well-founded in favour of the claimant. Awards were made for basic and compensatory awards for unfair dismissal, notice pay calculated on a gross basis as Post Employment Notice Pay, and holiday pay.
Practical note
When a respondent is in administration and fails to attend, tribunals may proceed to default judgment if satisfied the claims are well-founded on the evidence presented by the claimant.
