Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued in the Leeds Employment Tribunals on 8 November 2023. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and the Employment Judge determined the matter under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
The tribunal declared that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages and ordered The Yorkshire Food Group Ltd to pay the claimant the gross sum of £56.25.
The judgment also states, for the avoidance of doubt, that no judgment was made in relation to the claimant’s age discrimination complaint, and that complaint continued to hearing.

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.
