Claimant v SEC Data Centre Infrastructure Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the Respondent had unlawfully failed to pay the Claimant wages that were due. The Respondent did not attend to contest the claim. The tribunal awarded the net sum shown on the Claimant's pay slips after tax and national insurance deductions.
Facts
The Claimant brought a claim for unpaid wages against his former employer, SEC Data Centre Infrastructure Limited. The Respondent failed to attend the hearing. The Claimant appeared in person and demonstrated that he was owed £3,452.49 net wages as shown on his pay slips, being the amount after tax and national insurance deductions by the Respondent.
Decision
The tribunal found in favour of the Claimant and ordered the Respondent to pay £3,452.49 in unpaid wages. The award represents the net sum due after statutory deductions had already been made. The Respondent's non-attendance meant the claim was uncontested.
Practical note
Where a respondent fails to attend a hearing and the claimant can demonstrate unpaid wages through documentary evidence such as pay slips, the tribunal will make an award based on the net sum owed.
