Miss R Begum v AA Estate London Ltd: 6013710/2024
JUDGMENT
[1]The Claimant was an employee of the Respondent and was therefore entitled to receive an hourly rate of at least the National Minimum Wage.[2]The Claimant is owed the sum of £1830.40 gross by way of unauthorised deduction of wages, contrary to Section 13 Employment Rights Act 1996. This is calculated as follows:a. The Claimant was contractually entitled to be paid for 16 hours work each week over a period of 10 weeks from 17 July 2024 to 25 September 2024. During this period the Claimant either worked for the Respondent or was ready willing and able to work.b. The Claimant was entitled to receive the National Minimum Wage of £11.44 per hour.c. The Claimant is therefore entitled to 16 x 10 x £11.44 = £1830.40.[3]The Respondent is entitled to recover the sum of £842.40 from the Claimant as an Employers Contract Claim. This is calculated as follows: Case Number: 6013710/2024 a. Amount of Employer’s loan (£1500) – partial repayment (£200) – sums due for overtime worked (£40 x 11.44 = £457.60) = £842.40.[4]The balance owing to the Claimant is therefore £1830.40 - £842.40 = £988.
