Constitution of Tribunal: Chairman (sitting alone): Mr P Kinney Appearances: The claimant did not appear and was not represented. The respondent did not appear. 1. The claimant did not attend the hearing; but forwarded documentary evidence relating to his claim. The respondent presented a response and indicated that it did not intend to resist the claim. It also confirmed by correspondence that it did not object to the claim proceeding. Based on the information before me, I make the following findings of fact. Facts 2. The claimant was employed by the respondent from 6 May 2008 until his employment ended on 8 July 2011. The claimant’s age at the date of dismissal was 38. He had three years’ service with the respondent. 3. At the date of termination of the employment the claimant’s gross weekly wage was £1,013.54 and his net weekly wage was £726.92. 4. The claimant’s employment ceased when he was dismissed with immediate effect. No dismissal procedure whatsoever was followed by the respondent. 5. The claimant makes claims for redundancy payment, holiday pay and notice pay. He seeks eight days’ holiday pay. 6. After considering the evidence of the claimant, the tribunal is satisfied his claims are well-founded. The tribunal makes the following awards:- (a) Redundancy pay The claimant is entitled to three weeks’ pay based on his gross weekly wage, subject to the statutory cap of a week’s pay of £400.00. The claimant is therefore entitled to £1,200.00. (b) Holiday pay The claimant is entitled to eight days’ holiday pay. The claimant is entitled to £1,163.07. (c) Notice pay The claimant is entitled to three weeks’ notice pay based on his net weekly wage. The claimant is therefore entitled to £2,180.76. 7.
