EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 8000461/2024 Mr G Ritchie
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a rule 21 judgment on the available material because no response had been presented. The employment judge found that the respondent had unlawfully withheld wages, had breached the contract in respect of unpaid pension contributions, and had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement.
The tribunal ordered payment of £10,359.84 gross for unpaid wages, £1,419.66 in damages for unpaid employer and employee pension contributions, and £3,048.58 gross for unpaid holiday entitlement. The holiday figure was calculated by the tribunal on the basis of 28.48 days outstanding, using 40 hours per week at £16 per hour.
The hearing listed for 28 June 2024 was cancelled. The judgment also stated that the respondent could deduct income tax and employee national insurance contributions, if required by law, and remit those sums to HMRC, with payment of the balance to the claimant satisfying the 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.
