Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr D Welsh brought complaints about unpaid wages for the week he worked between 17 and 21 May 2019, accrued holiday pay, and the respondent's failure to provide a written statement of his terms and conditions under section 1 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. Employment Judge Flood, sitting alone in Birmingham on 17 December 2019, found all three complaints well founded and ordered Shadrake Silos Limited to pay £357.50, £465.60, and £665 respectively.
The tribunal dismissed the claimant's application for a preparation time order. It also dismissed the respondent's counterclaim for £186.60.
The sums awarded under paragraphs 1 to 3 were stated to be gross amounts payable, with the claimant responsible for any income tax and National Insurance contributions.

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.
