Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Sheffield by CVP before Employment Judge Rostant on 17 January 2023. The respondent was amended to JPG Staff UK Ltd. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent did not appear.
The tribunal held that the claimant’s claims for breach of contract in relation to notice, unauthorised deductions from wages in relation to arrears of pay, and unauthorised deductions from wages in relation to holiday pay succeeded. The claim for breach of contract in relation to expenses was withdrawn and dismissed.
The written record set out the gross sums awarded. For arrears of pay, the tribunal recorded £22,300 less £3,703 already paid, resulting in £18,597.00. For holiday pay, it recorded 14.6 days at £417.32 per day, resulting in £6,092.87. For notice pay, it recorded 3 months at £8,083 per month, totalling £24,249, less £417.32 already paid, resulting in £23,831.68.
The tribunal’s grand total was £48,514.6 gross. The note below the judgment states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.

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.
