Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued in the Wales Employment Tribunals on 20 August 2022. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and the Employment Judge determined that a determination could properly be made under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The listed hearing on 23 March 2023 was cancelled.
The tribunal made five awards in the claimant's favour. It found unauthorised deductions from wages and ordered payment of £1,439.04 gross. It also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £171, that the respondent had failed to pay holiday entitlement and awarded £240.57, that employer pension contributions to the pension scheme had not been paid and awarded £606.98, and that the respondent had failed to provide a statement of written particulars of employment and awarded £684.00.
The judgment records that the claimant is responsible for any employee tax and national insurance contributions due. The total payable was £3,141.59.

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.
