Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr A Deller, succeeded on an unlawful deduction from wages claim against Andrews Tipper Hire Limited. The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unlawful deduction from the claimant’s wages in the gross sum of £614, contrary to section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and ordered the respondent to pay that amount.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had unreasonably failed to comply with the ACAS Code of Practice (Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures) in relation to the claimant’s grievance letter dated 2 September 2022. For that reason, it uplifted the £614 award by 25%, producing an additional £153.50 under section 207A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.
The total sum awarded to the claimant was therefore £767.50. The judgment records that the claimant appeared in person and the respondent did not attend the hearing.

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.
