Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Harfield dealt with the case under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013 because no ET3 response form had been presented by the respondent, Blueprint Life Limited. The judge recorded that there was sufficient material before the tribunal to enable a proper determination to be made.
The tribunal upheld five monetary claims brought by Mr A Ball: unpaid wages for a pay discrepancy of £80.00, unpaid wages for May 2019 gross pay of £2,083.33, holiday pay of £576.90, breach of contract notice pay of £1,199.33, and breach of contract expenses of £20.00. The total awarded was £3,959.56.
The judgment also states that the claimant is responsible for any income tax or employee national insurance contributions due on the sums awarded in respect of unpaid wages, unpaid holiday pay, and notice pay. No further reasoning or separate apportionment beyond the listed sums is given in the extracted text.
