Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed Mr J Russell's unfair dismissal claim against Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust as not well-founded. Summary reasons were given orally at the hearing; the written judgment does not set out the reasoning for that outcome.
The complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages was well-founded. The tribunal found that the Trust had made an unauthorised deduction from Mr Russell's wages for work done on 7 November 2024. It ordered the Trust to pay him £241.80, the gross sum deducted, with Mr Russell responsible for any tax or National Insurance.

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.
