Claimant v Liquid Art Group Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The respondent failed to present a valid response on time. The tribunal determined under rule 22 that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages and ordered payment of the gross sum claimed.
Facts
The claimant brought a claim for unauthorised deduction of wages against Liquid Art Group Limited. The respondent failed to present a valid response to the claim within the required timeframe.
Decision
The Employment Judge determined under rule 22 of the Procedure Rules that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages and ordered payment of £442.80 gross to the claimant. This was a default judgment issued without a hearing due to the respondent's failure to respond.
Practical note
Employers who fail to respond to tribunal claims risk default judgment being entered against them, even for relatively small wage claims.
