Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed the claimant's contention that she was entitled to be paid wages at her normal rate of pay between 7 January 2019 and 30 July 2019. It separately found that she was entitled to one week's net pay in respect of the minimum statutory notice period under sections 86 to 88 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and awarded £855.77 gross to be calculated and paid on a net basis.
The tribunal also held that the claimant was entitled to accrued holiday pay under the Working Time Regulations 1998 for the period of employment from 1 January 2019 to 30 July 2019. It accepted an annual holiday entitlement of 28 days and agreed a pro rata entitlement of 16.5 days, rounded up, based on an annual gross salary of £44,500, producing a gross award of £2,824.04. The judgment notes that any gross payments are subject to applicable tax and employee National Insurance contributions, and the total monetary award was £3,679.81 gross.

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.
