Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal upheld Miss Zoe Naylor’s claim against Oaktree Support Services for unlawful deductions from wages under section 13(1) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. She was entitled to expect payment for working 150 hours per month. Contrary to her employment contract, she had not received written notice of a reduction in her monthly working hours for the period 15 September to 17 November 2025. The resulting underpayments amounted to unlawful deductions totalling £2,608.20.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £2,608.20, calculated using gross monthly pay, with the required Income Tax and National Insurance deducted for payment to HM Revenue and Customs. The accompanying interest notice specified a rate of 8% per annum and a calculation day of 1 August 2026. No interest would be payable if the sum was paid in full within 14 days after the judgment was sent to the parties on 31 July 2026.

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.
