Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the case at Leeds by CVP video conference on 26 and 27 July 2021, with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent represented by its director. The judgment records two determinations: the claimant was not automatically unfairly dismissed under section 103A of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and that claim was dismissed.
The tribunal did uphold the claimant's wages claim. It found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages for November 2020 by not paying the claimant at the National Minimum Wage rate. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay compensation of £238.93 gross in respect of that deduction.

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.
