Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages in the period 1 December 2023 to 31 December 2023. It ordered the respondent to pay the claimant the net aggregate sum deducted, with the respondent responsible for any tax or National Insurance.
The tribunal also found that, when proceedings were begun, the respondent was in breach of its duty to provide the claimant with a written statement of employment particulars. It found there were no exceptional circumstances making a two weeks' gross pay award unjust or inequitable, but that a four weeks' gross pay award was not just and equitable.

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.
