Facts
The claimant M Goodier brought a claim for unauthorised deduction from wages against 123 Recruitment and Training Ltd. The respondent did not participate in the proceedings. The judgment was issued under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013, which allows for determination without a hearing.
Decision
The tribunal found in favour of the claimant and determined that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages. The respondent was ordered to pay £432.69 gross to the claimant, and the scheduled hearing was cancelled.
Practical note
Rule 22 allows tribunals to determine straightforward wage claims on paper where respondents fail to engage, protecting workers' rights to recover unpaid wages efficiently.
