Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr S Nicholson 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 judgment notes that case management orders had been made separately about the claimant's other claims.
The Tribunal found the unauthorised deductions claim under s.13 Employment Rights Act 1996 well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay £942.32 gross for unpaid wages and £403.86 gross for holiday pay. The breach of contract claim for notice pay was well-founded; the claimant's statutory notice period was eleven weeks and the net notice pay was £5,824.94, less £3,718.88 earned in mitigation, yielding £2,106.06 net.
The redundancy payment claim under s.135 Employment Rights Act 1996 was well-founded and the respondent was ordered to pay £10,769.28 calculated under s.162 of the Act.

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.
