Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Respondent did not attend and was not represented at the hearing. The Tribunal declared that the Claimant's complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages was well-founded and ordered payment of the gross sum of £4,615.40.
The Tribunal also found that the Respondent had failed to pay the Claimant's holiday entitlement, awarding £387.69 gross, and had dismissed the Claimant in breach of contract by failing to give one week's notice or pay in lieu, awarding £705.28 net as damages.
The Tribunal further found that, when the proceedings began, the Respondent was in breach of its duty under section 1(1) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It considered it just and equitable to increase the award by £2,284, being four weeks' pay, resulting in a total award of £7,992.37.

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.
