Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Beard gave judgment in the absence of an ET3 response from the respondent, Severn Arms Hotel, and recorded that there was sufficient material before the tribunal to determine the claim under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013. The tribunal upheld the claimant's unpaid wages claim in the sum of £1,941.71.
The judgment does not set out detailed findings on liability beyond the Rule 21 default judgment basis. It also states that the claimant is responsible for any income tax or employee national insurance contributions due on sums awarded in respect of unpaid wages and unpaid holiday pay.

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.
