Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the Claimants’ claims for unlawful deductions from wages succeeded. The judgment identifies HCT Group as the Respondent and records that the matter was heard on 22 and 27 April 2021 and 1 July 2021 before Employment Judge Lewis.
At the remedy stage, the Claimants’ applications to amend their claims to include further deductions were granted by consent. The tribunal then recorded the outstanding payments for working rest day bonuses due under the Claimants’ contracts up to 1 July 2021: Mr Jubel Ahmed £573.28, Mr Laverne White £555.63, Mr Mizanur Bashar £27.21, Mr Muhammad Abu Bakar £13.60, and Mr Mohammed Abdul Hussain £566.81.
The judgment also records the Respondent’s agreement that, under the Claimants’ current contracts, they are entitled to a working rest day bonus when a rest day is worked and all rostered duties, currently 40 hours, have been completed in the relevant week. The bottom-line total of the outstanding payments recorded in the judgment is £1,736.53.

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.
