Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing on 17 August 2022, Ms A Decembre appeared in person and neither respondent appeared. The judgment records that she withdrew her claim against the first respondent and also states that the claim against Meraboiler Ltd is dismissed. The extracted text does not explain whether those are separate claims or reflects a drafting inconsistency in the order.
The tribunal found that the second respondent made unauthorised deductions from wages by failing to pay the claimant’s wages for 1 February 2022 to 16 February 2022. It ordered the second respondent to pay the net sum of £809.13. The tribunal also found an unauthorised deduction arising from non-payment in lieu of accrued but untaken annual leave and ordered payment of £628.10 net.
In addition, the tribunal ordered the second respondent to pay £1,348.60 under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002 for failure to provide the claimant with a written statement of employment particulars. The total amount ordered was £2,785.83.

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.
