JUDGMENT

[1]The claimant’s claim in respect of failure to provide rest breaks under the Working Time Regulations 1998 has been presented outside the time limits prescribed by statue. It was reasonably practicable for the claimant to bring such claim in time. As such, the Tribunal does not have territorial jurisdiction to hear it.[2]The claimant’s claims for unlawful deduction from wages and breach of contract were brought in time.[3]The claimant’s claim for unlawful deduction of wages succeeds and the respondent is ordered to pay the claimant the sum of £45 in respect of deductions made from the claimant’s wages for valeting the company van.[4]The claimants claim for breach of contract for arrears of pay in relation to travel time fails and is dismissed.
