Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant appeared in person and the respondent did not attend. The tribunal found that the notice pay complaint was well-founded because the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages by failing to pay the claimant for work done during his notice period in April 2024.
The tribunal also found the holiday pay complaint well-founded, on the basis that the respondent failed to pay for 2 weeks of holiday accrued but not taken when employment ended. The tribunal ordered gross payments of £849.79 for notice pay and £1,699.58 for holiday pay, while stating that the claimant was not entitled to a redundancy payment under the Employment Rights Act 1996.

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.
