Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

Mrs J Bhakar brought a complaint against Gemstones Republic Ltd trading as Aerotek Worldwide Staffing Company. The judgment records that the claim was sent to the respondent's registered office, that no response was presented by the return date or at all, and that there was no application for an extension of time.

Employment Judge JM Wade was satisfied that there was sufficient information on the file to give judgment under Rule 21. The claimant's complaint of unlawful deductions from wages/breach of contract succeeded, and the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay her the gross sum of £2,274.

The judgment also states that the tribunal cannot award damages for upset in this type of claim. No separate breakdown of the award was given beyond the gross sum ordered.

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.
