JUDGMENT

Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 – Rule 21[1]The claim was issued in the Leeds Employment Tribunals on 22 September 2021. The respondent has failed to present a valid response on time. The Employment Judge has decided that a determination can properly be made of the claim, or part of it, in accordance with rule 21 of the Rules of Procedure.[2]The first respondent has made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages and must pay the claimant £100.00 gross.[3]The proceedings against the second respondent are stayed. Reasons: Though there is still confusion as to the correct employer, the company currently registered as respondent is the successor to the company agency which was paid by the client for the claimant’s work. It is not proportionate to seek to clarify this further at a hearing where the sum claimed is relatively small.[4]The hearing listed on 24 January 2022 is cancelled.
