Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMs Burton brought claims including unauthorised deductions from wages, a National Minimum Wage complaint, holiday pay and breach of contract. The tribunal dismissed the complaint about an alleged unauthorised deduction on 27 June 2022, but upheld the complaints of unauthorised deductions from pay on 31 July 2021, 31 October 2021, 31 January 2022, 28 February 2022 and 30 April 2022 under Part II Employment Rights Act 1996. It ordered Soul Hair Limited to pay the claimant the gross sum of £78.11.
The tribunal dismissed the claimant's National Minimum Wage complaint as not well-founded. The holiday pay claim was withdrawn under Rule 51 and therefore dismissed pursuant to Rule 52.
The claimant's breach of contract claim and the respondent's counterclaim were also withdrawn under Rule 51 and dismissed pursuant to Rule 52. The attached interest notice recorded the relevant decision day as 20 September 2023, the calculation day as 21 September 2023, and a stipulated rate of 8% per annum.

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.
