Case Summary
The case involved claims of automatic unfair dismissal and unauthorised deductions from wages. The tribunal dismissed the claims of automatic unfair dismissal but found that Sunbelt Rentals Ltd made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant' wages for sick pay, ordering the respondent to pay £2,478.93.
Why this outcome?
The tribunal found that while the automatic unfair dismissal claim failed, the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages by withholding sick pay, which constituted a breach of the claimant's contractual and statutory rights.
