Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the remedy hearing on 11 May 2023, Employment Judge Hutchinson sat alone. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent did not appear. The tribunal gave judgment on the claimant's outstanding money claims and recorded that written reasons would not be provided because reasons had been given orally at the hearing.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from wages and ordered payment of £4,377.43 gross. It also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £819.14. In addition, the tribunal found that the claimant had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £1,506.45.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement, awarding £652.80, and had not provided a statement of terms and conditions of employment, awarding £1,004.30. The total amount payable under the judgment was £8,360.12.

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.
