Mr J Niangi v KM Renovations Ltd: 3305951/2021
JUDGMENT
[1]The respondent has made unauthorised deductions from the claimants wages and is ordered to compensate him in the sum of £1,000.00 without any deduction.REASONS
[1]The Prince claimant presented his claim to the tribunal on 19 April 2021, having completed early conciliation on 15 April 2021.[2]The respondent was served with that claim on 10 June 2021 but has not responded to it. It has neither appeared nor been represented at today’s hearing. Case Number: 3305951/2021[3]I took the view it was in the interest of justice to proceed in the absence of the respondent.[4]The matter has come before me today. I have heard the claimant’s evidence and have accepted it. He worked for the respondent under an oral agreement as a skilled labourer performing building operations at a weekly rate of £650.00, £100 net, for two weeks. Despite promises he has never been paid any part of the sums to which he was entitled.
