Ms G McGlory v Mulberry Services Ltd: 2414555/2018
JUDGMENT
[1]The claimant is entitled to be paid a statutory redundancy payment by the respondent in the sum of £1,644.30;[2]The respondent breached the claimant’s contract of employment regarding notice of termination and shall pay to the claimant damages in the sum of £1,087.80.[3]The total due from the respondent to the claimant in respect of the above judgments is £2,732.10. RECONSIDERATION OF ORAL JUDGMENT[1]Following the hearing I realised that both the claimant’s and my calculation of the statutory redundancy payment was based on weekly gross earnings of £313.20 whereas in fact the claimant’s evidence was that this sum was paid fortnightly. I reconsidered the judgment. The calculation ought to have been carried out based on a gross weekly wage of £156.60. The claimant was 62 years of age and had been employed for 7 full years at the date of dismissal. The figure above at paragraph 1 is correct. I apologise for my mistake and overstatement at the hearing when I said £3,288.60 was due; it is not.[2]The calculation of Notice pay is correct being based on 7 weeks’ notice entitlement and a net weekly wage of £155.40.
