JUDGMENT

The Judgment of the Tribunal is that:(i) The Claimant’s claim of discrimination because of religion or belief is not well founded and is dismissed.(ii) The Claimant was not redundant is not entitled to a redundancy payment.(iii) The Claimant’s claim for breach of contract (failure to pay notice pay) fails as the Claimant was not wrongfully dismissed.(iv) The Claimant was unfairly dismissed.(v) If the Respondent had followed a fair procedure the Claimant would have been dismissed four weeks later. Accordingly it would be just and equitable to limit the compensatory award to 4 weeks’ pay.(vi) The Claimant contributed to his dismissal and the basic and compensatory awards should be reduced by 25%.(vii) The Respondent is ordered to pay the Claimant £3,354 calculated as follows: Case No. 2301966/2016 2 Basic Award £ 4 x £479 =1916 Less 25% 1,437 Compensatory award 4 x £639 =2556 Less 25% 1,917 TOTAL 3,354
