Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages in the period 17th February 2025 to 24th February 2025. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and a default judgment was entered under rule 21 in favour of the claimant.
Facts
The claimant S Flesh brought a claim for unauthorised deductions from wages against C4 Cleansing Ltd in the Manchester Employment Tribunal on 31 March 2025. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time. The deductions related to wages for the period 17 February 2025 to 24 February 2025, totalling £843.75 gross.
Decision
Employment Judge KM Ross determined the claim on the papers under rule 21 and rule 22 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure. The tribunal found the complaint of unauthorised deductions from wages well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £843.75 gross.
Practical note
Where a respondent fails to file a response on time, tribunals can enter a default judgment under rule 21, determining well-founded wage claims on the papers without a hearing.
