Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was determined under rule 21(2) after no response was presented by the respondent and the tribunal had considered the tribunal file. The hearing was conducted by CVP at Southampton on 3 September 2021 before Employment Judge Dawson, with the claimant appearing and the respondent not attending.
The tribunal found that the claimant’s claims for breach of contract for notice pay, holiday pay, and unauthorised deduction of wages were well-founded and succeeded. It therefore ordered the respondent to pay damages of £487.38 for breach of contract, £1,033.08 for holiday pay, and £1,647.82 for unauthorised deduction of wages.
Written reasons were not provided because reasons had been given orally at the hearing and no request for written reasons was made within the stated period. The written record of the decision was sent to the parties on 7 October 2021.

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.
