Claimant v The Games Room Company UK Limited

The tribunal found, based on payslips and bank statements comparing amounts due to amounts received from June 2023 to December 2024, that the claimant had been underpaid by £16,987.19 gross. The respondent did not file a response or provide any evidence to the contrary. The claim was within the two-year limitation period under the Deductions from Wages (Limitation) Regulations 2014.

The tribunal accepted the claimant's evidence that she was owed 15.5 days of accrued but untaken holiday pay. Applying the Working Time Regulations 1998 and ERA 1996 sections 221-224, the tribunal calculated holiday pay based on weekly pay (£638.46) and awarded £1,979.20 for the 15.5 days. The respondent provided no contrary evidence and the bank statements showed no payment had been made.

The claimant was made redundant on 26 December 2024 after approximately 3.5 years of service. The tribunal accepted the claimant's calculation of statutory redundancy pay of £2,873.07 (representing 4.5 weeks' pay). The respondent did not file a response and bank statements showed no payment had been made. The respondent later agreed with this figure.
