Type of Claim / Jurisdiction
Pay
This claim concerned an alleged unlawful deduction from the complainant’s wages. The complainant argued it was custom and practice within the company to be paid full wages despite leaving early on the ‘break-up day’ for Christmas. The Court was satisfied that such an implied contractual arrangement existed. However, as the employee failed to seek permission to leave the premises and had not clocked out of work on the day in question the Court felt that the deductions were lawful.
