Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing in Reading on 22 July 2026, Miss S Butler appeared in person. Zrada Limited had submitted no response and did not attend or have representation. The tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay Miss Butler’s wages and pay for annual leave not taken when her employment ended, and owed her expenses. It also found that she had been constructively dismissed and wrongfully dismissed.
The tribunal ordered Zrada Limited to pay £5,141.62, comprising £2,763.12 in salary arrears, £1,039 in holiday pay, £1,039.50 in notice pay and £300 in expenses. The holiday pay and notice pay were stated as gross amounts. No separate award was identified for constructive dismissal. Summary reasons were given orally at the hearing.

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.
