Mr W Cooper v The Cardboard Box Company Ltd: 2418044/2018
JUDGMENT
[1]The claimant do have permission to amend his claim to add a claim in respect of unpaid Christmas bonus.[2]The respondent unlawfully deducted the sum of £100.00 from the claimant’s wages paid on 28 November 2018, and is ordered to repay that sum to him. This is a gross sum, and should be paid less the appropriate deductions for tax and national insurance.[3]The respondent did not make any unlawful deduction in respect of any Christmas bonus , which was not properly due and payable to the claimant, and this claim is dismissed.[4]The claimant did not raise a grievance in relation to the deduction made from his wages, but the Tribunal does not consider it would be just and equitable to make any reduction in the award pursuant to s.207A of the Trade Union & Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992.
