Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Liverpool on 12 July 2021, Employment Judge Horne found that Ashdale Construction Limited had made unauthorised deductions from Mr M J Jones's wages for 8 May 2020, from holiday pay, and from statutory sick pay for the periods 6 to 9 April 2020 and 1 to 7 May 2020. The tribunal ordered gross payments of £70.56, £352.81 and £172.53 respectively. It also found a breach of contract in the respondent's failure to give notice of termination and awarded damages of £352.51.
The tribunal further made an award under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002 because the respondent had not provided a statutory statement of particulars of employment. That award was two weeks' pay, assessed at £705.62. Separately, the tribunal found that itemised pay statements had not been provided, but it did not order any payment in respect of unnotified deductions.
The judgment states that the total amount payable was £1,654.33. The component figures listed in the extracted text add up to £1,654.03, so there is a 30p discrepancy in the text as extracted.

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.
