EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 8001530/2024 Mr D Modrzejewski
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment issued because no response had been presented. Employment Judge J Hendry decided the case on the available material and cancelled the hearing listed for 09 December 2024.
The tribunal found that the respondent had unlawfully withheld wages and ordered payment of £480 gross, calculated on the basis of 32 hours at £15 per hour. It also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £360 gross, calculated on the basis of 24 hours at £15 per hour.
The tribunal further found that the claimant had been dismissed without notice and awarded damages for one week's notice in the sum of £585 gross, calculated on the basis of 39 hours at £15 per hour. The judgment stated that the sums were gross wages without deduction of tax, and that the respondent could deduct income tax and employee National Insurance contributions if required by law, provided it remitted those sums to HMRC and gave the claimant written evidence of the deductions.

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.
