Case Summary
The claimant brought claims for arrears of wages, unpaid holiday pay, breach of contract (notice pay), and failure to make a statutory redundancy payment against his former employer. The tribunal dismissed all claims as they were presented outside the applicable statutory time limits. While the tribunal found it was not reasonably practicable to commence some complaints within the normal time limit, those complaints were not brought within a reasonable further period, and the redundancy claim could have been brought within the normal time limit.
Why this outcome?

While the tribunal found it was not reasonably practicable to commence the complaints of arrears of wages, unpaid holiday pay entitlement and breach of contract (notice pay) within the normal time limit, those complaints were not commenced within a reasonable further period, and the redundancy payment complaint could have been brought within the normal time limit.
