Facts
This is a consent judgment following a successful claim by Mr Young against the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Trust. The Claimant had succeeded in claims of failure to make reasonable adjustments, disability discrimination, and unfair dismissal. A remedy hearing was held on 13 September 2024, with an initial remedy judgment issued on 18 October 2024. The parties subsequently agreed additional amounts for pension loss and grossing up.
Decision
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £17,143.59, comprising pension loss of £12,620.90 and £4,522.69 for grossing up to account for the claimant's tax-free allowance having been exhausted by the earlier remedy judgment. The parties agreed that the injury to feelings award would be taxable.
Practical note
This consent judgment demonstrates how pension loss and tax grossing up calculations may need to be addressed in supplementary remedy orders following an initial remedy hearing, particularly where the claimant's tax-free allowance has been exhausted.
