JUDGMENT

[1]Under section 163 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 it is determined that the claimant is entitled to a redundancy payment of £10499.97.[2]The claimant’s claim in respect of holiday pay is well-founded. The respondent made an unauthorised deduction by failing to pay the claimant for holidays accrued but not taken on the date the claimant’s employment ended.[3]The respondent shall pay the claimant £323.08. The claimant is responsible for paying any tax or National Insurance.[4]The claimant’s claim of breach of contract in relation to notice pay is wellfounded.[5]The respondent shall pay the claimant £9692.28 as damages for breach of contract. The figure has been calculated using gross pay to reflect the likelihood that the claimant will have to pay tax on it as Post Employment Notice Pay. Notes Reasons for the judgment having been given orally at the hearing, written reasons will not be provided unless a request was made by either party at the hearing or a written request is presented by either party within 14 days of the sending of this written record of the decision.
