Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr Bruce Royce, brought a claim against Oja Global Ltd for unlawful deductions from wages. The hearing took place at East London Hearing Centre by CVP on 10 July 2023 before Employment Judge Professor A C Neal, with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent represented by Mr L Fakunle of Peninsula.
The tribunal upheld the unlawful deductions claim. It ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £9,462.07 for wages unlawfully deducted during the period 28 January 2023 to 13 March 2023 inclusive. The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing, so no written reasons were provided unless requested by either party within 14 days.
By supplementary note, the parties agreed that the sum was a gross payment of unlawfully deducted wages and that liability for any tax and National Insurance, if relevant, rested with the claimant. Payment of the ordered sum was to be made within 14 days of promulgation of the judgment.

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.
