Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Howden-Evans, sitting alone in Cardiff on 18 August 2020, decided a single holiday pay claim brought by Miss K Miles against Caroline McGready-Henry. The Respondent accepted that the Claimant had accrued but not taken 29.21 hours of holiday leave at the end of employment, that only £73.93 had been paid by way of holiday pay, and that the hourly rate was £8.50.
On those accepted facts, the tribunal found that the Respondent had failed, contrary to regulation 14(2) of the Working Time Regulations 1998, to pay the whole amount due to the Claimant in lieu of accrued but untaken annual leave. The tribunal awarded £174.36 gross for unpaid holiday pay.
The judgment also stated that if the debt was not paid in full within 14 days, interest would accrue at 8% per annum on any unpaid amount under Article 3(1) of the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990. It further recorded that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseekers Allowance & Income Support) Regulations 1996 did not apply to the award.

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.
