Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent did not file an ET3 Grounds of Resistance. Employment Judge Nicolle therefore determined the claim on the papers under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013, without a hearing, after considering the ET1.
The tribunal found that the respondent had unlawfully failed to pay the claimant wages for the period from 1 July 2019 to 26 July 2019. On the basis of a monthly gross salary of £10,416.67, the unpaid wages were assessed at £8,904.11 gross. The tribunal also found that accrued holiday entitlement remained unpaid and quantified that element at £721.15 gross.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant expenses in three separate tranches and awarded the net sum of £2,734.07 for that head of claim. The judgment records the total award as £12,359.33 and states that, where wages and holiday pay are paid gross, the claimant is responsible for applicable tax and employee national insurance contributions.

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.
