  • Employment Tribunals at a Final Hearing Reserved
    Case number: 2602342/2018 Reserved EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS BETWEEN: Claimant Respondent And Mr P Kibble Arcadia Group Limited AT A FINAL HEARING Held at: Nottingham On: 16 & 17 December 2019 and in chambers on 13 January 2020 Before: Employment Judge R Clark REPRESENTATION For the Claimant: Mr B Henry of Counsel For the Respondent: Mr S Wyeth of Counsel RESERVED JUDGMENT The judgment of the tribunal is that: - 1. The claim of breach of contract fails and is dismissed. REASONS 1. Introduction 1.1 This is a claim for damages alleging breach of contract. With effect from 9 June 2018, the claimant’s long period of employment with the respondent came to an end by reason of redundancy. He received the statutory redundancy entitlement and notice to which he was entitled under the Employment Rights Act 1996. 1 Case number: 2602342/2018 Reserved 1.2 The claimant’s claim is that those payments did not reflect the enhanced contractual entitlement he enjoyed as a result of two collective agreements made between his employer and his union, the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers (“USDAW”). The first agreement dates back to 1976 (“the 1976 agreement”). This was subject to a more recent variation in the second agreement signed off in 1996 (“the 1996 agreement”). 1.3 There is no dispute that those agreements applied to the claimant when his employment commenced in 1981 as they still did when the 1996 agreement was reached. There is no dispute that they provide for enhanced severance terms in case of redundancy and, to that extent, quantum is agreed.
