Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Buzzard, sitting alone in Liverpool on 28 November 2019, found that Miss Lucas had an outstanding wages claim for work done between 1 May and 8 May 2019. That complaint was upheld as an unlawful deduction from wages, and Griffin Care Homes Limited was ordered to pay £577, described as one week’s gross pay.
The claimant’s holiday pay complaint was dismissed on withdrawal. The tribunal also found that she had resigned on 8 May 2019 with immediate effect, so her claim that she had been dismissed without notice was not well-founded and was dismissed.
The tribunal further found that the claimant had been issued with a written statement of terms of employment on 17 November 2018. Her claim for compensation for an alleged failure to provide such a statement was therefore dismissed. The written judgment included the standard notice about tribunal interest, but no separate interest sum was calculated.

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.
