Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal gave judgment under rule 21 because the respondent failed to present a valid response in time. The Employment Judge decided the claim, or part of it, could properly be determined on that basis.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages and awarded £552 gross. It also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £460 gross.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and awarded £1,012 gross. The judgment states that any tax or National Insurance payable is the claimant's responsibility.

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.
