The tribunal found that the respondent failed to provide written itemised pay statements as required by section 8 Employment Rights Act 1996 for the period 17 May 2023 to 25 November 2023. The tribunal determined that these statements should have shown gross monthly pay of £2708.33 and net monthly pay of £2009.60.

Facts

Mr C Taylor was employed by The Stonebaked Company, receiving monthly gross pay of £2708.33 and net pay of £2009.60. During the period from 17 May 2023 to 25 November 2023, the respondent failed to provide him with written itemised pay statements as required by law. The claimant brought a claim under section 8 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.

Decision

The tribunal found in favour of the claimant, determining that the respondent had breached its statutory duty to provide itemised pay statements under section 8 ERA 1996. The tribunal declared what particulars should have been included in the statements.

Practical note

Employers must comply with their statutory obligation to provide itemised pay statements showing gross and net pay, and failure to do so can result in a successful tribunal claim even without additional financial losses being proven.
