EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 4110148/2021 Mr D Grieve
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response was presented to the claim. The Employment Judge issued judgment on the available material under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013.
The tribunal found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from wages, dismissed the claimant in breach of contract in respect of notice, failed to pay holiday entitlement, and caused loss of employer pension contributions. It ordered payment of £4,673.81 gross for wages, £7,361.78 net for notice, £2,624.61 gross for holiday entitlement, and £1,188.00 gross for employer pension contributions.
The claim for expenses was dismissed because expenses are excluded from the statutory meaning of wages. The protective award claim was sisted and was not determined in this judgment.

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.
