Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Respondent failed to present a valid Response on time, and the Employment Judge determined the claim under rule 22(2) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages was well-founded, with the Respondent ordered to pay £344.00 in respect of basic salary for December 2024. The complaint for holiday pay under regulation 16(1) of the Working Time Regulations 1998 was well-founded, with an award of £103.20.
Complaints under regulation 30(1)(a)(i) of the Working Time Regulations 1998, concerning failure to provide daily rest contrary to regulation 10(1) and (2) and rest breaks contrary to regulation 12(1) and (4), were well-founded. The Tribunal made a compensation award of £547.45 under regulation 30(3)(b) and (4).
The Tribunal further found that, when proceedings began, the Respondent was in breach of its duty to provide a written statement of employment particulars. It was just and equitable to make an award equal to four weeks' gross pay under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002, amounting to £276.16. The Respondent was ordered to pay the Claimant £1,270.81 in total.

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.
