Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent did not file an ET3 or grounds of resistance. Employment Judge Joffe therefore determined the case without a hearing under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013.
On the ET1, the tribunal accepted that Copper Salons Ltd had unlawfully failed to pay Miss Meriem Bacha £240 in wages and £240 in notice pay. The judgment records both sums separately and makes no further findings beyond those pleaded and admitted by the default procedure.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £480 to the claimant and to account to HMRC for any tax and National Insurance due on that sum. The hearing listed for 16 March 2023 was vacated and the parties were directed not to attend.

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.
