Case Summary

The claimants were dismissed as redundant when the respondent company entered administration. The tribunal found the respondent breached its statutory obligations under the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 by failing to consult appropriate employee representatives before dismissing 20 or more employees within a 90-day period. The claimants are entitled to a protective award of 90 days' pay.

The respondent breached its statutory obligations under sections 188A and 188 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 by failing to consult or elect appropriate employee representatives before dismissing 20 or more employees within 90 days, therefore a protective award of 90 days' pay is due.
