Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was heard at Manchester by video on 13 January 2025 before Employment Judge Slater. The respondent did not attend and presented no response. The tribunal made its decision on the papers and oral hearing evidence recorded at that hearing.
The tribunal held that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from wages by failing to pay the claimant wages due for 1-10 May 2024. It ordered the respondent to pay the claimant the gross sum of £3,287.67 in respect of that deduction.
The tribunal also held that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from wages by failing to pay the claimant in lieu of accrued but untaken holiday on termination of employment. It ordered payment of the gross sum of £2,958.90. In addition, it found a breach of contract because £667.76 of employer pension contributions had not been paid to the claimant's pension scheme, and it awarded damages in that amount.
The written record also included the standard Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 notice. It stated that interest would be payable at 8% per annum from 23 January 2025 if the award was not paid within 14 days of the relevant decision day.

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.
