Facts
Miss McDougall brought claims for unfair dismissal, unpaid wages and unpaid holiday pay against her former employer, Structured House Ltd. The respondent was sent a rule 28 notice and order on 23 May 2024 but failed to respond. The response was subsequently dismissed.
Decision
The tribunal entered judgment in favour of the claimant under rule 21 on all three claims due to the respondent's failure to participate in the proceedings. A remedy hearing will be scheduled to determine the compensation to which the claimant is entitled.
Practical note
Where a respondent fails to present a response after receiving proper notice, the tribunal will enter a default judgment in favour of the claimant under rule 21, with remedy to be determined at a subsequent hearing.
