Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent did not present a Response. Employment Judge Kurrein therefore entered judgment in default under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013, having heard Mr Slack's evidence.
The tribunal upheld six monetary claims. It found unauthorised deductions from wages for the week ending 4 March 2019, breach of contract for failure to give notice on 4 March 2019, and failure to pay in lieu of annual leave for the period ending 4 March 2019. It also found failure to pay for standing time for the week of 12 April 2019, failure to pay in lieu of annual leave for the period ending 12 April 2019, and unauthorised deductions from wages for the weeks ending 19 and 26 April and 3 and 10 May 2019 in respect of tax rebates.
The judgment states that the sums were calculated gross, without deductions for income tax or national insurance. It further records that if the respondent accounts to HMRC for any such deductions, payment of a lesser net sum would be good satisfaction of the judgment. The total awarded was £12,771.46.

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.
