Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was presented in the London South Employment Tribunal on 6 February 2025. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and Employment Judge Burge determined the claim under rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure on the papers.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages for December 2024 and January 2025 (net of a £200 part-payment), that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of 4 weeks' notice, that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and entitled to a statutory redundancy payment based on a weekly wage of £685.87, age 34, and 3 years' service, and that the respondent had failed to pay 2.7 days of accrued holiday entitlement.
The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £9,911.46 in total, comprising the wages, notice damages, redundancy payment, and holiday pay set out in the judgment. The hearing listed on 17 September 2025 was cancelled.

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.
