Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent did not enter a response to Miss M Pina's claims of unfair dismissal, notice pay, unlawful deductions from wages and holiday pay. Employment Judge Norris, sitting alone via CVP, recorded that the claims accordingly succeeded in default pursuant to Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013.
The tribunal ordered the respondent, Alportel Limited, to pay £3,848 for unpaid wages for October and November 2021, £2,213.90 for five weeks' pay in lieu of notice, and £1,788.83 for 20.2 days' accrued but untaken holiday at the date of termination on 30 November 2021. On the unfair dismissal claim, the tribunal awarded a basic award of £2,720, loss of earnings of £838.61 to 4 April 2022 taking mitigation into account, and £450 for loss of statutory rights.
The judgment states that all figures were based on net pay except the basic award, which was subject to the statutory cap of £544 per week. The total ordered to be paid without deduction was £11,859.34. The record notes that reasons were given orally and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days of the sending of the decision.

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.
