The Floor Room Logo
This claim is open to all UK employees. Being laid off by The Floor Room, then you are entitled to compensation for unfair dismissal which consists of 8 weeks of pay as they have not followed the correct procedure.

The Floor Room have acted unlawfully in the manner of your dismissal.  

Payment is awarded from the government through the employment tribunal and does not rely upon the administrators.  Therefore you are guaranteed your award as long as you have a claim lodged with the employment tribunal.

Your Protective Payment award

A Protective Award is compensation awarded by an employment tribunal because your employer did not consult with you before you were made redundant. You’re only entitled to get this payment if you or your job role was included in a tribunal judgement. We will take your claim to the tribunal and secure your award.

The Correct procedure

  • Step 1: Warn people of the potential of redundancy
  • Step 2: Identify the redundancy pool
  • Step 3: Decide on the selection criteria
  • Step 4: Consult with employees as a group
  • Step 5: Apply the selection criteria
  • Step 6: Consult with employees individually
  • Step 7: Dismiss the employee

The Floor Room's Procedure

Step 1: Fail to consult with any of their employees

Step 2: Dismiss everyone via the administrators


As we can see The Floor Room's procedure is significantly different from the the correct procedure which is laid down in law and as such The Floor Room have failed to consult with their staff.  You will need put in a claim to receive the protect payment award money as this needs to be raised via the employment tribunal service.
