Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge M Butler determined the matter under Rule 21. The tribunal found that Fox Networking UK Ltd had made an unauthorised deduction from Mr J Hammond's September 2023 wages and ordered the respondent to pay £159 gross.
The tribunal also found that Mr Hammond was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of one month's notice and awarded £2,376 gross in damages. The judgment stated that Mr Hammond would be responsible for any tax liabilities arising if tax was not deducted from source, and the total gross sum ordered was £2,535.
A separate notice appended to the judgment explained the interest regime under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990, including that interest would start to accrue from 28 June 2024 if the award remained unpaid after 14 days from the relevant decision day, but no separate interest sum was quantified in the judgment itself.

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.
