Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr M Pilkington brought a complaint in respect of holiday pay against JGS Hospitality Limited. Employment Judge Leach found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages by failing to pay for holidays accrued but not taken on the date the employment ended. The respondent's name was amended in the judgment to JGS Hospitality Limited.
The tribunal held that the holiday pay complaint was well-founded. The award was calculated as £940 for 1.35 weeks, or 7.44 days, of accrued untaken holiday, and the calculation of that sum had been agreed between the parties. The judgment records that the claimant is responsible for any tax or National Insurance on the payment.
The written record also included the standard interest notice under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990. It stated that interest would only become payable if the award remained unpaid after the relevant decision day, but no separate interest figure formed part of the judgment amount. Reasons were given orally at the hearing and no written reasons were provided.

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.
