Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal found that the claim of unauthorised deductions from wages was well-founded. It found that the respondent made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages from 1 September 2024 up to completion of a half day on 1 October 2024, and ordered payment of the gross sum deducted.
The Tribunal also found that the respondent was in breach of contract by failing to pay the claimant's notice period for half a day on 1 October until 4 October 2024. It ordered the respondent to pay damages for that breach of contract.

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.
