Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at London Central by CVP on 21 December 2023 before Employment Judge A.M.S. Green. The claimant, Ms V C M Chang, appeared in person and the respondents were not present or represented. The tribunal dismissed the claims against the first and second respondents.
Against the third respondent, the tribunal found a breach of the obligation to provide itemised payslips under section 12(3) of the Employment Rights Act 1996 in relation to the week ending 16 July 2023. It also found the claimant's claim for unlawful deduction from wages well founded and awarded £767.25, made up of payment for the week ending 23 July 2023 and the shift worked on 26 July 2023, together with a 10% uplift for failure to follow the ACAS Code of Practice - Disciplinary and Grievance Procedures.
The tribunal further upheld the claimant's holiday pay claim and awarded £1,098.86, described in the judgment as 1.81 weeks' pay of £998.26 plus the same 10% uplift. It also found that the third respondent breached its duty to provide a written statement of employment particulars and awarded £1,092 under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002, expressed as two weeks' pay at 36.4 hours x £15 x 2.

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.
