The tribunal also found that the fourth respondent made unauthorised deductions from Miss Bull's pay between 5 August 2024 and 4 January 2025, for which it awarded £6,409. It awarded a further £1,513.92 for pension contributions not paid between 27 September 2023 and 4 January 2025, £849 for untaken holiday deducted on termination, and £2,800 for failure to provide a statement of change of employment particulars.

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.
