Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr P Wainwright's redundancy payment claim failed because the tribunal found he did not have the two years' continuous employment needed to qualify. No redundancy payment was therefore awarded.
The tribunal upheld the claim for unauthorised deductions from wages. It found that the respondent had unlawfully deducted £1,264.00 gross, made up of 10 days at £111.40 per day and one day at £150.00, and ordered payment of that sum subject to deductions for tax and national insurance.
The tribunal also upheld the breach of contract claim. It found that the claimant had been dismissed without one week's notice and awarded £557.00 gross as damages, subject to deductions for tax and national insurance. The claim for one week's holiday pay was likewise found well-founded, and a further £557.00 gross was awarded, subject to any deductions required by law.

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.
