Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Hawksworth sat alone at Reading by CVP on 22 October 2021. The respondent did not attend or have representation. The tribunal found that Mr S Stonehouse had made unauthorised deductions from Mr A Adey's wages and ordered payment of £2,558, made up of £145 for unpaid hours worked in February 2020 and £2,413 for arrears of pay for the period 21 March 2020 to 16 August 2020, with credit given for payments made on 18 May 2020 and 6 July 2020.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant in respect of 3.2 weeks' accrued but untaken holiday. It ordered payment of £591.36. The judgment states that the figures at paragraphs 1 and 2 were gross sums, and that if the respondent paid the tax and national insurance due to HMRC on those sums, payment of the net amounts would meet the judgment debt.
In addition, the tribunal found that the respondent failed to provide a written statement of particulars of employment as required by section 1 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and ordered two weeks' pay of £369.60. It also found that the respondent failed to provide itemised pay statements as required by section 8 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. No separate monetary award is stated for that finding.
The total monetary award disclosed by the judgment is £3,518.96. The written statement award is described in the judgment as a net sum, while the other awarded sums are described as gross sums.

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.
