Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Smailes, sitting alone at a remote video hearing in London Central on 5 March 2021, found that Playdays Nurseries had made an unlawful deduction from Ms Marta Rodriguez Villamiel’s wages. The deduction arose because the respondent failed to pay her in lieu of accrued but untaken holiday.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £729 gross, described in the judgment as the gross sum unlawfully deducted. No separate breakdown of remedy components was given in the written decision.

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.
