Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that the claimant's unfair dismissal claim was well-founded and succeeded. It awarded a compensatory award of £415.52 and recorded that the recoupment provisions did not apply.
It also found that the claimant had been wrongfully dismissed in breach of contract and awarded damages of £1,261.92, described as four weeks' net pay at £315.48 per week. The tribunal further found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £834.28.
On wages, the tribunal declared that the first respondent made unauthorised deductions on 28 May 2021 and 28 June 2021. The extracted text renders the first deduction as '£1 3'; read in context as £13, the two deductions were £13 and £318.24, and the tribunal ordered compensation of £331.24 for unlawful deduction from wages.

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.
