The deductions were identified as two months' pay for December 2018 and January 2019, each stated to be £1,060, together with one month's pay held in arrears at £954. The tribunal awarded £3,074 in compensation and ordered the respondent, MJB Security Limited, to pay that sum to the claimant.

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.
