Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Shepherd determined the claims on the papers under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunals Procedure Rules 2024, the respondent having presented no valid response within the time allowed. The claimant attended in person, assisted by Rosie Teggin; there was no appearance for the respondent.
The tribunal found that the claims of unauthorised deduction from wages and outstanding holiday pay succeeded, and ordered the respondent to pay the claimant gross sums of £2,242.00 and £142.22 respectively, totalling £2,384.22. The claim of disability discrimination was dismissed upon withdrawal by the claimant.
The judgment records that, on the information before the Employment Judge, the wages and holiday pay claims succeeded; no further reasoning on liability or remedy is set out in the document.

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.
