JUDGMENT

[1]The correct name of the respondent is Derwood Homes & Developments Limited.

[2]The respondent has dismissed the claimant on grounds of redundancy on 28th June 2019 at which point the claimant had 8 complete years of service. Mr Thomas is entitled to a statutory redundancy payment from the respondent of £6,236.28 as calculated at the end of this judgment.

[3]As the respondent company has ceased trading, it is likely Mr Thomas will face difficulty recovering this debt from the respondent. If Mr Thomas is unable to recover this debt from the respondent, he is referred to section 166(1)a Employment Rights Act 1996, which explains his right to claim payment from the National Insurance Fund.
