Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Manchester Employment Tribunal on 23 March 2022, before Employment Judge Mark Butler, the claimant appeared for herself and the respondent did not attend. The tribunal recorded that the claimant was not constructively dismissed.
On that basis, the tribunal dismissed the claimant's unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal claims as not well-founded. The judgment does not set out any separate remedy for those dismissal claims.
The tribunal then upheld the claimant's monetary claims. It ordered the respondent to pay £288.46 gross for unpaid holiday pay and £49,106.69 gross for unlawful deductions from wages. The judgment states that the awards are gross figures, that the respondent should make the necessary tax deductions at source, and that the claimant will be responsible for any tax liabilities if deductions are not made.

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.
