Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response had been presented to the claim, so the Employment Judge issued judgment under rule 21 on the available material. The tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay £359.89 by way of wages represented as pension payments, and treated that sum as an unlawful deduction from wages under section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The tribunal also found that holiday pay remained outstanding on termination. It awarded £1,075 gross for 13.98 days at a daily rate of £76.92, less £500 paid to account, leaving £575.34 payable to the claimant. In addition, the tribunal awarded £416.67 as damages by way of notice pay due to the claimant. The total award was £1,351.90.

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.
