Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal gave judgment on remedy in Ms Christine Ward's claim against Spin and Span Cleaning Services Ltd. The respondent did not attend and was not represented. Employment Judge Bedeau found that there had been an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages and ordered the respondent to pay £1,183.75 gross.
The tribunal also found that the respondent had acted unreasonably in its conduct of the proceedings, because it had agreed to pay the claimant's wages but paid only part of them, making it necessary for her to issue Employment Tribunal proceedings to recover the balance. A Preparation Time Order was granted and the respondent was ordered to pay £250 in costs. The claimant was directed to account for any taxes due on the £1,183.75 wages sum.

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.
