Case Summary
Two food delivery drivers brought claims for unfair dismissal, redundancy, and unlawful deductions following termination when the respondent business closed due to insolvency. The tribunal dismissed the unfair dismissal and redundancy claims because neither claimant had two years' service, but awarded compensatory sums totalling £2,430.19 to Mr Khan and £3,663.34 to the claimants for unpaid wages, commission, notice pay and holiday pay.
Why this outcome?
No qualifying employment periodThe unfair dismissal and redundancy claims were dismissed because neither claimant had two years' service, which is the statutory minimum qualifying period. The monetary awards were made under Rule 22 judgment (default judgment) because the respondent failed to submit a response and did not attend the hearing, entitling the claimants to recovery of their proven unpaid wages, commission, statutory notice pay, and accrued holiday pay.
