Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs M Zubair brought claims against Acola Kids Limited for unpaid wages, notice pay, and accrued holiday pay. The respondent did not attend the hearing and was not represented, having entered no response. The case was heard by Employment Judge B Elgot at East London Hearing Centre by telephone on 10 August 2022.
The tribunal held that the claim for unpaid wages succeeded. It awarded £1,438.60 net for unpaid wages and £144 for overtime payments, making £1,582.60 in total. The judgment does not set out a separate legal analysis beyond recording that the claim succeeded and the amount due.
The tribunal also held that the claim for notice pay succeeded. It awarded one month’s pay in accordance with the claimant’s contract of employment, assessed at £1,666.66 gross, subject to the appropriate deductions for tax and national insurance. The tribunal further held that accrued and unpaid holiday pay succeeded and awarded £998.40 gross, said to represent 13 days’ pay due on termination of employment on 23 December 2021.
The grand total payable by the respondent was recorded as £4,247.66 within 21 days. The judgment does not record any discrimination, dismissal, or statutory working time findings beyond the holiday pay award, and it does not identify any additional remedy components such as interest or separate compensation.

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.
