Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal upheld the claimant's first unlawful deduction from wages complaint under section 13 ERA 1996. It found that wages due for 27 June 2020 to 11 July 2020 had not been paid and ordered the respondent to pay £560, being the amount deducted for that period.
The tribunal also found the claimant's second unlawful deduction from wages complaint under section 13 ERA 1996 to be well founded in respect of 12 July 2020 to 22 September 2020. However, the amount owing had already been paid by the time of the judgment, so no further order was made on that complaint. The tribunal additionally recorded that, when proceedings began, the respondent was in breach of its duty under section 1(1) ERA 1996 and ordered an award of £560 under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002.
The claimant's claim to a statutory redundancy payment failed. The tribunal held that the claim that she had been dismissed by reason of redundancy on or around 4 July 2020 was not made out.

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.
