Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr S Jones brought claims of unauthorised deductions from wages, breach of contract for notice pay, and a statutory redundancy payment against Total Home Delivery Limited. The respondent did not present a response to the claim. The claimant provided further information by correspondence to the Tribunal, upon which Employment Judge Gordon Walker made a determination under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Rules 2024.
The Tribunal found the unauthorised deductions claim under s.13 Employment Rights Act 1996 well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay £8,000 gross for unpaid wages (a series of deductions the last being from 17 September 2024) and £3,750 gross for accrued holiday unpaid on termination. The breach of contract claim for notice pay (under the Employment Tribunals Extension of Jurisdiction Order 1994) was well-founded; the claimant's statutory notice period was nine weeks and the net notice pay due was £8,356.86, less £3,498.84 in mitigation earnings, yielding £4,858.02 net.
The redundancy payment claim under s.135 Employment Rights Act 1996 was well-founded and the respondent was ordered to pay £7,700 calculated under s.162 of the Act.

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.
