Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued in the London South Employment Tribunals on 17 March 2022. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, so the Employment Judge determined that the claim, or part of it, could properly be decided under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages for two months and ordered payment of £9,570 gross. It also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and ordered £875 gross, and it awarded £210 gross for unpaid pension employer contributions.
The tribunal further found that the breach of contract claim in respect of expenses was well founded and awarded £150.35 gross. The total payable was £10,805.35, and the tribunal stated that the claimant was responsible for any tax or national insurance due to HMRC in respect of the gross awards.

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.
