Claimant v Selina Management Company UK Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The Respondent failed to file an ET3 response. The tribunal accepted the claimant's evidence that wages were not fully paid for July and August 2024, resulting in a shortfall of £4,275.63.
The Respondent failed to defend the claim. The tribunal found that the claimant was owed 13.36 days of accrued but untaken holiday pay totalling £5,909.13.
The Respondent did not respond to the claim. The tribunal accepted the claimant's case that notice pay of £9,583.33 was owed and not paid.
With no response from the Respondent, the tribunal determined that statutory redundancy pay of £1,750.00 was properly due to the claimant.
Facts
Jennifer Wilks brought claims against her former employer Selina Management Company UK Ltd for unpaid wages, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy pay. The Respondent failed to file an ET3 response within the deadline and did not request an extension. The claimant had submitted evidence showing shortfalls in wages for July and August 2024, accrued holiday pay not paid, failure to pay notice pay, and statutory redundancy pay.
Decision
Employment Judge Snelson determined the claim under rule 22 without a hearing based on the claimant's ET1 and attachments. The tribunal found in favour of the claimant on all claims and awarded a total of £21,518.09 covering wage arrears, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy pay.
Practical note
Default judgments under rule 22 can result in substantial awards where the respondent fails to engage with the tribunal process and the claimant provides sufficient documentary evidence.
