Claimant v Alpha Health and Care Services Limited

The claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal on the ground that she made a protected disclosure under section 103A of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was not well founded. The tribunal found that the dismissal was not because of whistleblowing.

The claimant's complaints that she suffered detriments because she made a protected disclosure contrary to sections 47B and 48 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 were not well founded. The tribunal did not find that the alleged detriments were connected to any protected disclosure.

The claimant's complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages (arrears of pay) under sections 13 and 23 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 succeeded. The tribunal found the respondent had unlawfully deducted wages totalling £1,050.00 and £420.00 that were properly due to the claimant.

The claimant's complaint of breach of contract relating to notice pay under the Employment Tribunals Extension of Jurisdiction Order 1994 succeeded. The tribunal found the respondent failed to pay the claimant her contractual notice pay of £525.00.
