Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal upheld Mr T Johnson’s claim for unpaid wages and unlawful deduction against Clearway Drainage Systems Limited. It found that he had worked 10 hours at a gross rate of £12 per hour on 17, 18, 19 and 20 March 2020 and had not been paid for that work.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had made a deduction from the claimant’s pay in respect of personal protective equipment. The claimant had returned the equipment, the respondent had reimbursed him only part of the amount due for the returned items, and a balance of £47.94 remained outstanding. The respondent paid £13.09 on the day before the judgment was given orally.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £120.00 for unpaid wages and £47.94 for PPE, less the £13.09 already paid, making a total award of £154.85. The written record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and no written reasons would be provided unless requested.

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.
