Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing on 2 February 2022 before Employment Judge Johnson, the tribunal found that the claimant’s complaint of unfair dismissal was well-founded and succeeded. It awarded a basic award of £1,485 and a compensatory award of £647, producing a subtotal of £2,132 for the unfair dismissal claim.
The tribunal also found that the claimant’s complaint of unauthorised deduction from wages was well-founded and succeeded, and ordered payment of £1,188 in respect of unpaid wages. It further upheld the claim for failure to pay accrued holiday pay and ordered £660, and upheld the breach of contract claim for failure to pay notice pay and ordered £800.
The tribunal dismissed the claimant’s complaints of unlawful disability discrimination and unlawful race discrimination, finding both were not well-founded. The unpaid wages and holiday pay awards were stated to be net amounts, with the respondent responsible for any income tax and national insurance contributions on those sums.

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.
