Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing on 22 March 2021 before Employment Judge Hughes, the respondent did not attend and had not submitted a Response Form. The claimant was in person. The tribunal found that the claimant had received no pay for 24 weeks up to 19 March 2021 and had received no P45.
On that basis, the tribunal concluded that the claimant was de facto redundant as from 19 March 2021. It found that she had taken all reasonable steps to recover the redundancy sum from the respondent and ordered payment of £1,199.52 in respect of the redundancy claim.
The tribunal also found that the claim for unauthorised deductions from wages in respect of the outstanding 24 weeks' wages was well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay £3,790.56 net. It further found that the claim for breach of contract, described in the judgment as wrongful dismissal, was well-founded and awarded £866.32, identified as one month's net pay. The total amount payable was £5,856.40.

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.
