Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the claimant's complaints of unpaid wages and accrued holiday pay were well-founded under s.13(1) ERA 1996. It awarded £279 for 31 hours of work at £9 per hour and £43.40 for accrued holiday pay. It also found that the respondent breached s.1 ERA 1996 by failing to provide a written statement of particulars by the beginning of employment on 21 April 2021, and awarded £756, calculated as two weeks' pay at 42 hours per week at £9 per hour.
The wrongful dismissal complaint was dismissed. The separate complaint seeking one month's wages for mistreatment was also dismissed. Before finalising the amount payable, the tribunal required the claimant to give credit for £113 of wages already paid, £50 for a lost key, and £65 for one week of accommodation and food.
After those credits, the tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant the net sum of £850.40.

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.
