JUDGMENT
[1]The respondent’s name is amended from Arthur Tozowonach (in voluntary liquidation) to Forward Xpress Ltd (In Voluntary Liquidation). Arthur Tozowonach was the name of the owner/a director of the company that employed the claimant, whilst the claimant was employed by the legal entity ‘Forward Xpress Ltd’ (now in Voluntary Liquidation).[2]The claimant was an employee of the respondent.[3]The respondent subjected the claimant to unauthorised deductions from his wages in respect of:a. Holiday pay, for which the respondent is ordered to pay the claimant the gross sum of £1,695.40, which is 10 days unpaid holiday pay at the gross figure of £169.54 per day.b. Unpaid wages in the gross sum of £339.08, which is 2 days at the gross figure of £169.54 per day.[4]The respondent has breached the claimant’s contract in respect of unpaid notice pay. The claimant is entitled to 10 days’ notice pay. The respondent must pay the claimant the gross sum of £1,695.40, which is 10 days at the gross figure of £169.54 per day.[5]The total award is for the gross sum of £3,729.88.[6]The claimant needs to be aware that this will be subject to tax and any other statutory deductions at source. And therefore, the figure he receives may be less than that above, after having accounted for such deductions.
