Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that Plane Tree Hospitality Limited was the claimant’s employer and therefore the correct respondent. No response on a prescribed form was entered, so liability judgment was entered in default pursuant to Rule 21 of Schedule 1 to the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013. The hearing was before Employment Judge Norris sitting alone via CVP, with the claimant in person and the respondent represented by Mr H Ushida.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £430.10 gross. That sum was made up of £204.99 deducted from pay as 'security costs' on 4 September 2020, £2.46 deducted from pay on 18 September 2020, and £58.07 deducted from pay on 2 October 2020, together amounting to £265.52 for unlawful deductions from wages. The balance of £164.58 was awarded for holiday accrued but untaken on termination. Reasons were given orally at the hearing, and the record notes that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.

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.
