Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at Exeter by CVP on 27, 28 and 29 September 2023 before Employment Judge Oldroyd sitting alone. The Tribunal upheld the Claimant's unlawful deduction of wages claim, finding that the Respondent had failed to pay her in lieu of 8 weeks of accrued but untaken holiday. It awarded £5,756 gross for that deduction.
The Claimant's constructive unfair dismissal claim was dismissed. The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days, so no further reasoning is set out in the extracted text.
The Tribunal also found that the Respondent failed to provide a statement of employment particulars under sections 1 and 4 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It made an award under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002 equivalent to 4 weeks' pay, assessed at £2,878 gross. The total of the awards recorded in the judgment is £8,634 gross.

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.
