Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMiss S Hughes brought a claim against Kiddies Corner Day Nursery Ltd, presented in the Wales Employment Tribunal on 1 April 2025. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time. Employment Judge S Jenkins made a determination under Rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure.
The Tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages and ordered payment of £1,366.51 gross. The claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice; damages of £183.04 were awarded. The respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and was ordered to pay £819.10. The total of the awarded items (£1,366.51 + £183.04 + £819.10 = £2,368.65) was reduced by £560 already received from the respondent on 30 December 2024, leaving a total payable of £1,808.65, with the claimant responsible for any tax and employee national insurance contributions due.

Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text.
