Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued on 23 November 2023. The respondent did not present a valid response on time, so the Employment Judge proceeded under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The claimant’s unopposed application to amend the claim, sent by email on 20 December 2023, was granted.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages and ordered payment of £188.10 gross. It also ordered additional compensation for failure to provide written statement of employment particulars required by section 1 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The extracted text renders that figure as 2501.60 gross, but the total award of £689.70 gross indicates the intended sum was £501.60 gross.
The tribunal refused the ACAS uplift because it had not been pleaded and no application to amend the claim to include it had been made. The judgment records that the sums awarded were gross amounts and that the respondent was responsible for any income tax and National Insurance deductions.

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.
