Claimant v Ms T Bersheda
Outcome
Individual claims
The Tribunal found that the Respondent made an unauthorised deduction from the Claimant's wages by not paying her for work carried out between 19-23 November 2024. The Respondent was ordered to pay the gross sum unlawfully deducted.
Facts
The Claimant worked for the Respondent between 19-23 November 2024. The Respondent did not pay the Claimant for this work, amounting to a gross sum of £1,093. Both parties appeared in person at a video hearing before the London South Employment Tribunal.
Decision
The Tribunal found that the Respondent made an unauthorised deduction from wages by failing to pay for work done. The Tribunal ordered the Respondent to pay the Claimant £1,093 gross, with the Claimant responsible for her own tax and national insurance obligations.
Practical note
Even in cases involving individual employers and small sums, tribunals will enforce payment for work done where there has been an unauthorised deduction from wages.
