Case Summary

The claimant's claims for unlawful deductions from wages and breach of contract in respect of notice pay were successful. The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £6,612 for unpaid wages, accrued holidays, and pension deductions, as well as £2,480 for 4 weeks' notice pay.

Why this outcome?

The tribunal found that the respondent made unauthorised deductions from wages contrary to the Employment Rights Act 1996, including unpaid wages, accrued holiday pay, and pension contributions not paid into the fund, and also dismissed the claimant in breach of contract by failing to provide proper notice.
