Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response was presented to the claim. Employment Judge J Hendry determined the case under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 on the available material and ordered payment to the claimant. The judgment records that the respondent may deduct income tax and employee National Insurance contributions, if required by law, before making payment and remitting any such deductions to HMRC.
The tribunal upheld the claimant's complaint about unpaid holiday entitlement, finding that the respondent had failed to pay the holiday pay due and that this amounted to an unauthorised deduction from wages. It awarded £2,020 gross, calculated by reference to 16.44 hours at £12.21 per hour.
The tribunal also ordered payment of £1,900 in respect of tips said to be due under the employment contract. The judgment does not give any further reasoning for that head of award or identify any separate statutory basis for it. The total sum ordered to be paid was £3,920.

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.
