Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Buzzard sat alone at Liverpool on 30 July 2019. The respondent filed no response and did not attend. The tribunal held that the claimant's claim for unlawful deduction from wages was well-founded because the respondent failed to pay his final week's pay, for the week to 3 March 2019. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £681.25 as compensation for that claim.
The tribunal also held that the claimant's breach of contract claim was well-founded because the respondent failed to pay accrued but untaken holiday on termination of employment. The tribunal ordered payment of £1,776.48 as compensation for that claim. The claimant was reminded that the sums may be taxable and must be declared to HMRC as appropriate. The total of the two awards was £2,457.73.

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.
