Claimant v Innovate Agriculture Technologies Limited

The tribunal found that the first respondent made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages during the period from 1 March 2023 to 1 April 2024. The claimant was employed by and engaged as a worker of the first respondent at the material time, and the deductions were not properly authorised.

The tribunal found that the first respondent failed to pay the claimant for ten days of accrued but untaken annual leave as required by the Working Time Regulations 1998. However, the claim for holiday pay relating to previous holiday years (prior to 2024, save for three days carried over) was not well-founded and dismissed.

All claims against the second respondent were dismissed because the tribunal found that the claimant was neither employed under a contract of employment nor engaged as a worker by the second respondent at the time material to the claims.
