Claimant v FIRSTPEOPLEGLOBAL LTD
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the respondent failed to pay the claimant for 16 working days between 3 and 24 February 2025, constituting unauthorised deductions from pay. The claimant was entitled to £96.20 daily gross pay for each of those days.
The tribunal found that the claimant had accrued 6.68 days of untaken holiday which had not been paid. At a daily gross pay rate of £96.20, the respondent was ordered to pay for this accrued holiday entitlement.
The tribunal found that the claimant was entitled to 4 weeks contractual notice pay from 25 February to 24 March 2025. The respondent failed to pay this notice entitlement of £414.00 net per week.
Facts
The claimant was employed by the respondent until 24 February 2025. The respondent failed to pay the claimant for 16 working days between 3 and 24 February 2025, failed to pay for 6.68 days of accrued but untaken holiday, and failed to pay 4 weeks contractual notice pay. The claimant's daily gross pay was £96.20 and net weekly pay was £414.00. The respondent did not attend the hearing.
Decision
The tribunal found all three claims well-founded. The respondent was ordered to pay £1,539.20 for unpaid wages, £642.62 for accrued holiday pay, and £1,656.00 net for contractual notice pay, totalling £3,837.82. The claimant succeeded on all claims as the respondent failed to make payments due under contract and statute.
Practical note
Employers who fail to attend tribunal hearings risk default judgments for wage claims where the claimant can demonstrate clear contractual entitlements to unpaid wages, holiday pay, and notice pay.
