Claimant v Total Home Delivery Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The respondent did not present a response. The tribunal determined under rule 22 that the claim for unauthorised deductions from wages under section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was well founded based on the claimant's evidence provided by correspondence.
The respondent did not present a response. The tribunal determined under rule 22 that the claim for holiday outstanding and unpaid on termination was well founded based on the claimant's evidence provided by correspondence.
Facts
The claimant brought claims for unpaid wages and holiday pay against his former employer, Total Home Delivery Limited. The respondent failed to present a response to the claims. The claimant provided further information by correspondence to the tribunal to support his claims.
Decision
The tribunal determined under rule 22 that both claims were well founded and ordered the respondent to pay £2,475 in unpaid wages and £825 in outstanding holiday pay, totalling £3,300 gross. The decision was made on the papers without a hearing due to the respondent's failure to participate.
Practical note
Where a respondent fails to file a response, the tribunal can make a rule 22 default judgment on the papers if satisfied the claim is well founded based on the claimant's evidence alone.
