Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing took place at London South (by CVP) on 3 February 2025 before Employment Judge Hart. The Respondent did not attend, and the Tribunal proceeded in its absence after making such enquiries as were practicable. The Tribunal found that the Claimant was an employee of the Respondent from 2 October 2023 to 3 March 2024.
The complaint of unfair dismissal was not upheld and was dismissed because the Claimant had been employed for less than two years. The complaint of wrongful dismissal was upheld: the Respondent had failed to pay the statutory notice pay of one week, and was ordered to pay £375 net. The complaint of unauthorised deduction of wages was upheld in respect of unpaid wages for February 2024, with the Respondent ordered to pay £1,500 net.
The Tribunal further found that the Respondent had failed to provide the Claimant with a written statement of employment particulars or with itemised pay slips, and ordered the Respondent to pay two weeks' pay in compensation, amounting to £750 net. Written reasons were not provided as the reasons were given orally at the hearing.

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.
