Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting remotely at Swansea before Employment Judge S Povey, found that the Claimant's complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages was made out. The judgment records an award in the Claimant's favour and does not identify any separate discrimination, dismissal, or redundancy issues.
The amount awarded was £1,099.82. The judgment explains the calculation as net salary of £731.20 for six periods, holiday pay of £146.24 for three periods, car allowance of £103.65 for six periods, and expenses of £344.00, less £4,692.00 already paid by the Respondent. The tribunal also directed the Respondent to account to HMRC for tax and national insurance due on the salary and holiday pay payments made to the Claimant.
The judgment adds that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseeker's Allowance & Income Support) Regulations 1996 do not apply.

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.
