Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the final hearing via CVP on 21 June 2021, Employment Judge R McPherson found that YWR Airdrie Ltd had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages under s13 ERA 1996. The tribunal awarded £3,206.50 for 11 weeks' wages due for the period from 26 March 2020 to 31 July 2020.
The tribunal also upheld a breach of contract claim, awarding £660.00 in damages for the respondent's failure to give 2 weeks' statutory notice under s86(4) ERA 1996. It further found that the claimant was entitled to a redundancy payment under s135 ERA 1996 and ordered payment of £990.00.
A further claim relating to 11 days of accrued holiday pay succeeded, with the tribunal awarding £726.00. The judgment states that the sums in orders 1, 2 and 4 are gross of tax and national insurance, that the respondent must make any lawful deductions for HMRC if applicable, and that the Employment Protection (Recoupment of Job Seekers Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 do not apply to any of the sums awarded.

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.
