JUDGMENT
The Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013 - Rule 21[1]This claim was issued in the London South Employment Tribunals on 4 December 2023. The Respondent has failed to provide a valid response to the claim on time. I have decided that a determination can properly be made of the claim in accordance with Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 (as amended).[2]IT IS DECLARED that the Respondent has made an unlawful deduction from the wages properly due to the Claimant and must pay the Claimant £3,598.00 gross. This is calculated as follows:a. Wages due for August 2023: 5 weeks x £200 = £1,000.00 grossb. Wages due for September 2023: 4 weeks x £200 = £800.00 grossc. Wages due for October 2023: 4 weeks plus 1 day x 200 = £866.00 grossd. Wages due for November 2023: £932.00 gross[3]The Claimant also sought payment of £70.00 in relation to travelling expenses. These are not wages and so are not available from this Tribunal.[4]The Claimant was also dismissed in breach of contract in respect of being given, or paid for, notice. The Respondent must pay damages to the Claimant of £800.00 gross.[5]The Respondent must pay, forthwith, the total of £4,398.00 to the Claimant.[6]The Claimant must account to HMRC for any sums owed in tax, National Insurance, or other statutory deductions in respect of payment received pursuant to this judgment.[7]The hearing listed for 16 April 2024 is cancelled.
