Wrongful Dismissalsucceeded

The tribunal found that the claimant was wrongfully dismissed, awarding compensation for unpaid wages for the final day of the contractual notice period and contractual severance pay. The respondent failed to honour the claimant's contractual entitlements on termination.

Facts

Ms Afzal was employed by Inspiralis Limited. Her employment was terminated without the respondent paying her wages for the final day of her contractual notice period and without paying contractual severance pay to which she was entitled.

Decision

The tribunal found the claim of wrongful dismissal well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay £692.30, comprising £115.38 for one day's unpaid wages during the notice period and £576.92 in contractual severance pay. The tribunal provided guidance on the tax treatment of each component.

Practical note

Employers must honour contractual obligations on termination, including payment for the full notice period and any contractual severance entitlements, or face liability for wrongful dismissal.
