Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent failed to present a valid response on time, so Employment Judge Aspinall determined the claim under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. Judgment was entered on 2 December 2022 and sent to the parties on 14 December 2022.
The tribunal upheld three unlawful deduction from wages claims. It ordered payment of £1,480.78 for November 2021, £8,750.00 for December 2021 to February 2022, and £538.48 for March 2022. The judgment set out the calculation by reference to a salary of £35,000 per annum, converted into weekly, monthly and daily rates.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £673.08, being one week’s pay. It further found that holiday entitlement had not been paid and awarded £942.34 for 7 days’ holiday, calculated from 25 days’ annual entitlement. The total sum ordered was £12,384.68. A separate notice dealt with interest under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990, but no separate interest amount is stated in the judgment.

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.
