Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Birmingham on 10 July 2019, Employment Judge Reed, sitting alone, heard Mr S Sagoo in person and Independent Reworks Ltd represented by a consultant. The judgment records a preliminary issue on worker status rather than a final merits determination of the underlying wage claims.
The tribunal held that Mr Sagoo was a worker in relation to the respondent from January 2016. On that basis, he was entitled to take forward his claims of unauthorized deductions from wages. The judgment does not set out any finding on the substantive deductions alleged.
No monetary award is recorded in the judgment, and no remedy calculation is set out. The decision is limited to the worker-status point and the claimant's ability to pursue the claims.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
