Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Claimant brought complaints of unfair dismissal, detriment on the ground of having made a protected disclosure, and unauthorised deductions from wages. The hearing took place at Cardiff over three days in August 2025 before Employment Judge S Jenkins sitting alone, with the Claimant in person and Mrs S Maslen for the Respondent.
The Tribunal dismissed the complaints of unfair dismissal and protected disclosure detriment. The complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages succeeded in part, with £28.14 ordered to be paid to the Claimant.
Reasons were given orally; written reasons were not provided in the published judgment.

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.
