Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was issued on 21 December 2022 and the respondent filed a response but did not contest it. The Employment Judge therefore determined the matter under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013, and the hearing listed for 21 April 2023 was cancelled.
On the uncontested claim, the tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages and awarded £109.80 gross. It also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £2,562.00 in damages.
The tribunal further found that the claimant had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £3,510.00. It also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and awarded £281.82.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay a total of £6,463.62.

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.
