Claimant v DJK & CC Catering Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal found that the respondent made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages and awarded £1,398.75 gross. This was a Rule 22 judgment, meaning the respondent did not present a response and judgment was entered in default.
The tribunal found the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £349.19. The respondent failed to provide proper notice of termination.
The tribunal found the respondent failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and awarded £574.86. This represents accrued but unpaid annual leave at termination.
