Claimant v Beatclub Inc.

The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and the tribunal made a default judgment in favour of the claimant under rule 21. The respondent was found to have made unauthorised deductions from wages totalling £13,461.50 gross plus pension contributions of £592.90.

The tribunal found the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, with no valid defence from the respondent. Damages were awarded at £5,833.33 representing the notice period entitlement.

The claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and the tribunal found entitlement to a statutory redundancy payment of £1,286.00, with the respondent having failed to respond to the claim.

The tribunal determined the respondent failed to pay the claimant's accrued but untaken holiday entitlement, awarding £538.46 under the Working Time Regulations 1998.
