Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Ainscough, sitting alone at Manchester, upheld the claimant Miss E Townsend's claim for unlawful deduction from wages under section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The tribunal awarded £2,890.04 for non-payment of wages covering the pay dates from 5 November 2018 to 5 December 2019.
The tribunal also awarded £140 for accrued holiday pay under regulation 14 of the Working Time Regulations 1998. The written record contains the awards but does not set out further reasons beyond recording that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.
The respondent, Coastal Home Care Services Ltd, was not in attendance. The judgment therefore records the successful statutory wage and holiday pay claims and the amounts awarded, with a total of £3,030.04.

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.
