It gave him a further payslip on 30 April 2017 showing that the Respondent owed the Claimant a further £47.15, net, in wages.[3]The Respondent did not pay the Claimant the wages shown on either payslip.[4]The Claimant presented a claim to the Employment Tribunal on 10 July 2017, claiming unlawful deductions from wages and unpaid holiday pay, against the Respondent.[5]The Respondent did not defend the claim. It wrote to the Tribunal on 31 August 2017 10.7 Judgment with reasons – rule 62 Case No: 3200937/2017 saying that it had paid £100 to the Claimant to reduce his claim.[6]The Respondent did not attend the hearing. The Claimant attended the hearing and confirmed that he had received £100 from the Respondent, so that the outstanding value of his claim was £375.95 net. He explained that his pay included an element for rolled up holiday pay, so that the Claimant was not bringing a separate claim for holiday pay.[7]The Employment Judge considered that it was clear that the Respondent had failed to pay the Claimant £375.95 in wages due to him.[8]The Employment Judge ordered the Respondent to pay the Claimant £375.95 in compensation for unlawful deductions from wages.
