Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe written judgment records that time was not extended for the filing of the respondents’ response, and that the second and third respondents were dismissed from the proceedings. The awards were made against Ms W Smith, who was the first and now sole respondent. The hearing was at Pontypridd on 12 December 2019 before Employment Judge Reed, and the respondents did not attend.
The tribunal recorded that the respondent made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages and ordered payment of £3,111. It also recorded a failure to make payments into a pension scheme for the claimant’s benefit, with an award of £204.79, and a failure to make a proper final payment for holiday accrued and untaken, with an award of £1,733.52.
The judgment further records a breach of contract by failing to give notice of dismissal, with damages of £457.32, and a failure to provide the claimant with a statement of principal terms of employment, with an award of £914.65. Costs of £1,440, described as £1,200 plus VAT, were also ordered. The written record states that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.

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.
