Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was determined under Rule 21. The tribunal found that Gaudium Ltd had made unauthorised deductions from Miss A Nelson's wages and ordered payment of the gross sum of £3,432.12. That figure was made up of five items: underpayment of wages for August 2023, underpayment of wages for September 2023, payment for work provided at the respondent's direction for another company, unpaid employee pension contributions, and lease car sums that had not been paid to the lease company.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant for 20.5 days of untaken annual leave on termination of employment. It ordered payment of £1,850.74 gross for that claim. The total ordered to be paid was £5,282.86 gross. The judgment also stated that the claimant would be responsible for any tax liabilities if tax was not deducted from source, and that the hearing listed for 3 June 2024 was cancelled. The attached interest notice recorded a relevant decision day of 17 April 2024 and stated that interest would run from 18 April 2024 at 8% per annum unless the sum was paid within 14 days.

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.
