This was a Rule 21 judgment in a multi-claim case brought by Mr C Jones, Ms S Clark, Mr T Miles, Mr A Yevhen, Ms O Shpeko, Ms M MacKenzie and Mr R Scott against Artydough Ltd. No response had been presented, so the Employment Judge decided the case on the available material under rule 21. The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from wages in respect of unpaid wages and accrued holiday, and had failed to provide statements of terms and conditions as required by section 1 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.

The judgment set out itemised awards for each claimant. For unpaid wages, the awards were £780.72 to Mr Jones, £722 to Ms Clark, £715.90 to Mr Miles, £294.50 to Mr Yevhen, £287.38 to Ms Shpeko and £101.50 to Ms MacKenzie. For holiday pay, the awards were £855, £699.75, £1,153, £665, £665, £102.90 and £161.70 respectively. Separate awards of two weeks' pay were also made for the failure to provide written statements: £418, £361, £558, £665, £703, £266 and £147.

The respondent was permitted to deduct any income tax and employee National Insurance Contributions required by law before payment, provided the sums deducted were remitted to HMRC and the claimants were given written evidence. On the face of the judgment, the aggregate awards totalled £10,322.35 before any required deductions for tax or National Insurance.
