Facts
The claimant Kiran Naz was dismissed by reason of redundancy by Savace Limited. The claim was filed on 18 March 2025 in the Midlands East Employment Tribunal. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, allowing the tribunal to make a determination under rule 21 of the Rules of Procedure.
Decision
Employment Judge Clark issued a default judgment under rule 21 awarding the claimant statutory redundancy payment of £913.44, calculated on the basis of weekly pay of £456.72 for one year of service. The previously scheduled hearing was cancelled.
Practical note
Where a respondent fails to file a response, a tribunal can make a rule 21 default judgment awarding statutory redundancy pay based on the claimant's stated facts without a hearing.
