Mrs J Walsh v Dip This Hydrographics Ltd: 2414143/2020
JUDGMENT
The “Code V” in the heading indicates that this was a remote hearing by video conference call, to which the parties entitled to attend had consented. The claimant’s claims of breach of contract as it relates to notice and unlawful deductions from wages are all well founded and succeed. The respondent is ordered to pay to the claimant the following sums as compensation:[1]£772.20 representing one months’ gross notice pay. This is calculated as one twelfth of an annual salary (taking into account the increase to the National Minimum Wage from April 2020) of £9,266.40;[2]£880.80 representing five weeks gross unpaid wages (one week at £168 and four weeks at 178.20, to take into account the increase in the National Minimum Wage from April 2020); and[3]£122.40 representing 12 weeks gross shortfall in pay, of £10.20 per week, following the increase in the National Minimum Wage from April 2020.
