Mr Yat San Shu [1] Miss Cheuk Yau Tsang [2] Miss Pui Yu Shu [3] v GD Box Group Limited — 2022

The tribunal heard the claims at Cardiff on 30 May 2022 before Employment Judge Randall. It recorded that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that no written reasons were provided unless requested under the tribunal rules.

It found that the respondent had made deductions from each claimant's wages without authorisation, contrary to section 13(1) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. For the first claimant, the deduction covered wages for 1 to 15 November 2020 and the tribunal ordered payment of £1,009.84. For the second claimant, the deduction also covered 1 to 15 November 2020 and the tribunal ordered payment of £922.95.

For the third claimant, the tribunal found an unauthorised deduction from wages for 1 to 13 November 2020 and ordered payment of £861.64. The written judgment also states that the claimants are responsible for any income tax or employee national insurance contributions due on the sums awarded.
