Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing took place at Bristol by VHS on 22 April 2022 before Employment Judge King. The claimant did not attend and her request for the hearing to be postponed was refused. The tribunal noted that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days of the written record of the decision.
The tribunal dismissed the claimant’s claim for unlawful deductions from wages as not well founded. It also dismissed the claimant’s claim for breach of the Agency Workers’ Regulations, described in the judgment as the Agency Workers’ Regulations 2020, as not well founded. No monetary award was recorded.

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.
