Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Newburn heard this matter at Newcastle CFCTC on 29 January 2026; the claimant Mr E Mabaisa appeared in person and the respondent (Canny Clever IT Service Centres Ltd) did not attend. The respondent's title was amended to add 'Ltd'.
The Judge found the claimant's claims for unlawful deductions from wages and holiday pay were well-founded and succeeded. The respondent was ordered to pay £23.90 for a 0.04p hourly shortfall over 597.5 hours (October 2024 to February 2025), £100 for a February 2025 payslip underpayment, £2,031.96 for 177 unpaid hours at £11.48 per hour (21 February 2025 to 1 April 2025), and £648.98 for 56.5 hours of accrued but untaken holiday at £11.48 per hour. The total gross award was £2,804.84, with the claimant liable for any income tax and national insurance. The recoupment regulations were noted as not applying.

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.
