The claimant's claims for unlawful deduction of wages and breach of contract (notice pay) were successful. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £1,868.04 for the unlawful deduction and £432.69 for breach of contract.

The tribunal found that the respondent unlawfully deducted wages from the claimant and breached the contract by failing to pay notice pay, and therefore ordered compensation for both breaches.
