Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Newcastle by CVP on 30 April 2025, Employment Judge Aspden heard the claim with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent not attending. The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages in August 2024 and awarded the claimant £2,430, the gross sum deducted. It also found the holiday pay complaint well-founded because the respondent had not paid for holidays accrued but untaken when the employment ended, and awarded £1,836.
The tribunal further determined under section 163 Employment Rights Act 1996 that the claimant was entitled to a redundancy payment of £4,200. It upheld the breach of contract complaint for failure to give notice of termination and awarded £4,446 in damages, calculated using gross pay to reflect the likelihood that tax would be payable on the payment as Post Employment Notice Pay. The tribunal also upheld the breach of contract complaints relating to employee pension contributions not being paid to the pension provider and employer pension contributions not being paid, awarding £1,800 and £1,270 respectively. The total award recorded by the judgment was £15,982.

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.
