Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that Pet Friends Ltd t/a Go Vets had made unauthorised deductions from Mr Z Elgendy’s wages for the part of his notice period falling after the 31 August 2023 payslip, covering 1 September 2023 to 21 September 2023. It awarded him £2,307.69 gross in respect of that claim. It also found that holiday pay had not been paid for holidays accrued but untaken when his employment ended, and awarded him a further £3,846.20 gross.
The same findings were made in Mr M Elgendy’s case. The tribunal found an unauthorised deduction from wages for the same notice-period period and awarded him £2,307.69 gross. It also found that holiday pay had been withheld for accrued but untaken leave on termination and awarded him £3,846.20 gross.
For each claimant, the breach of contract claim in respect of notice pay was treated as, in substance, a duplicate of the unauthorised deductions claim. The tribunal recorded that no further or additional sums were owed in respect of notice pay. The judgment was sent to the parties on 5 June 2024.

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.
