EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: S/4103458/2018 Mrs Lisa Simpson
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013, the tribunal recorded that the respondent did not present a response after the claim form was first served on 19 April 2018. A default judgment was issued on 12 June 2018. The claimant then asked for the judgment to be revoked and for the claim to be re-served at an alternative address; the claim was re-served on 7 August 2018 with a response due by 4 September 2018, but no response was received.
On the material available, the tribunal held that the claimant's complaints of holiday pay, arrears of pay, and payment for unpaid accrued wages succeeded. It awarded £408 for six days of accrued holiday between 26 September 2017 and 15 December 2017, £157.25 as the balance due for 37 hours worked in the week 8 to 14 December 2017 where only 18.5 hours had been paid, and £344.25 for one week's 'lying time' and unpaid wages for 40.5 hours worked between 26 September and 2 October 2017, making a total award of £909.50.

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.
