Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claims were presented in the South East Employment Tribunal on 8 December 2024 and 27 April 2025. The respondent did not present a valid response on time to either claim, and the Employment Judge determined that judgment could properly be entered under rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages. It awarded £9,262.24 gross, made up of £2,350 gross for March 2025 wages, £2,343.60 deducted as income tax but not paid to HMRC, £937.44 deducted as employee national insurance contributions but not paid to HMRC, and £3,631.20 deducted as employee pension contributions but not paid to Nest.
The tribunal also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded £6,507.60 gross in damages. It further found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and awarded a redundancy payment of £14,642.10.
The total sum payable was £30,411.94.

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.
