Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr R Anderson's undefended claims against Dynamo Couriers Ltd were heard at Edinburgh and decided orally on 4 August 2022. The tribunal found that, between 26 March 2020 and 6 August 2020, the respondent made unauthorised deductions from wages contrary to section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It identified net deductions of £1,496.25 for 26 March 2020 to 21 May 2020 and £914.37 for 28 May 2020 to 6 August 2020, making £2,410.62 in total.
The tribunal also found that, in the holiday year 1 September 2020 to 31 August 2021, the claimant had 17 days of paid annual leave outstanding and untaken as at the effective date of termination on 30 August 2021. It awarded £1,130.50 as compensation for that accrued but untaken leave.
A further allegation that wages were due in respect of overtime was dismissed for want of evidence. The total sum payable under the judgment was £3,541.12.

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.
