Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the hearing in Watford on 29 November 2023 before Employment Judge Davey, the tribunal found that Mr F Oprea's complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages was well-founded. It held that A & A Medical Limited had made an unauthorised deduction from his wages in the period 1 to 16 February 2022 and ordered payment of £738.46, described as the gross sum deducted. The claimant was recorded as being responsible for any tax or National Insurance due on that sum.
The claimant's breach of contract claim also succeeded, but the written record states that no award of compensation was made on that claim. The respondent's contract claim was dismissed under Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunal (Constitutional and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 because of non-attendance. The written record notes that the tribunal gave oral reasons at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.

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.
