Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Krepski, sitting at London South via CVP on 6 March 2023, found that Mrs Mary Jessop’s claim of automatic unfair dismissal was well-founded. The judgment does not set out the underlying dismissal reason in the extracted text, but it records that the unfair dismissal claim succeeded and that compensation was awarded under that head.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from wages. It identified three components: an April discrepancy of £73.62, unpaid days in April and May totalling £962.50, and holiday pay of £721.88. Those sums were awarded as part of the wages claim.
In addition, the tribunal held that the respondent was in breach of contract by failing to pay notice pay and by failing to make the necessary pension contributions. The award under this head was £1,516.67 for notice pay and £183.00 for pension contributions. The judgment records separate monetary awards for each successful head and orders the respondent to pay the listed sums.

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.
