Mrs Z Ikramullah v Future Digital Media Ltd — 2019

The tribunal determined the matter under Rule 21 and made three awards in favour of the claimant, Mrs Z Ikramullah, against Future Digital Media Ltd. It found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages and ordered payment of £1,278.11 net.

It also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £346.15 in damages. The judgment records that this amount was assessed on the basis of the claimant’s gross pay for the notice period, and notes that HMRC is likely to require tax and national insurance to be paid on it as Post-Employment Notice Pay once the respondent pays the sum.

Finally, the tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £480.79 net. The hearing listed for 2 August 2019 was cancelled. The judgment also included the standard interest notice stating that, if unpaid after 14 days, awards carry interest at the stipulated rate noted in the notice, but it did not set out any separate interest figure in the judgment itself.
