JUDGMENT
[1]The unfair dismissal claim is well founded and is allowed. The respondent is ordered to pay the sum of £1,577.06 to the claimant which is a figure net of tax and national insurance. The respondent is liable to pay such liabilities.[2]The claim for unauthorised deductions from wages is well founded and is allowed. The respondent is ordered to pay the sum of £1235.08 to the claimant which is a figure net of tax and national insurance. The respondent is liable to pay such liabilities.[3]The breach of contract claim in respect of notice pay is well founded and is allowed. The respondent is ordered to pay the sum of £923.08 to the claimant which is a figure net of tax and national insurance. The respondent is liable to pay such liabilities.[4]The claim of failing to provide written reasons of dismissal is well founded and is allowed. The respondent is ordered to pay the sum of £738.46 to the claimant which is a figure net of tax and national insurance. The respondent is liable to pay such liabilities.[5]When the proceedings were begun the respondent was in breach of its duty to provide the claimant with a written statement of employment particulars. There are no exceptional circumstances that make an award of an amount equal to two weeks’ gross pay unjust or inequitable. It is just and equitable to make an award of an amount equal to four weeks’ gross pay. In accordance with section 38 Employment Claim no: 3305458/2024 Act 2002 the respondent shall therefore pay the claimant £1,476.92, which is a figure net of tax and national insurance. The respondent is liable to pay such liabilities.[6]The respondent failed to give the claimant written itemised pay statements as required by section 8 Employment Rights Act 1996 in the period from 1 September 2023 to 22 March 2024.[7]For the avoidance of doubt, the total sum to be paid by the respondent to the claimant is £5950.60.
