Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant started work for the respondent on 20 August 2018. Her contract provided for a six-month probationary period during which notice was one week, and clause 12.1 provided for one month's notice only after completion of probation. By letter dated 9 March 2019, the probationary period was extended to 1 September 2019, so the tribunal found the claimant remained on probation and the notice period continued to be one week.
In July 2019 the claimant texted and emailed that she was leaving. The respondent’s email of 25 July 2019 set out a calculation of sums due, including a week’s pay in lieu of notice and deductions for holidays taken in excess of contractual entitlement and sick leave. The tribunal recorded that there was no dispute about those deductions, and that the claimant owed the respondent £271.05, which the respondent did not seek to recover.
