Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing was conducted by telephone and CVP at Bury St Edmunds on 24 July 2020 before Employment Judge Laidler. The claimant was in person, assisted by his father, Mr M Driver. The second respondent, Kris Couriers Limited, did not enter a response to the claim, so the tribunal entered judgment by default for the amount claimed in the claim form, £1,273.50, in respect of unpaid wages and holiday pay.
The tribunal did not break down that sum between the unpaid wages and holiday pay elements. No substantive findings on the merits of those monetary claims were recorded, because the judgment was entered by default against the second respondent.
The claims against the first respondent, Caribou Worldwide Limited, were dismissed because the claimant withdrew them. The written record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days, so no further reasoning is set out in the decision.

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.
