Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment in which no response had been presented by the respondent after notice of claim was sent on 11 March 2019. The tribunal therefore determined the matter on the papers. It held that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant’s wages and ordered payment of the net sum of £400.00. It also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £275.00.
The unfair dismissal complaint did not proceed. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years’ service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, and concluded that she was not entitled to bring that complaint. As the claimant did not give an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out, the tribunal struck it out. The total monetary award recorded in the judgment was £675.00.

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.
