Legal Principles
The Employment Judge applied Rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure to determine the claim, as the respondent failed to present a valid response on time. This procedural rule allows for a determination to be made in the absence of a timely response, enabling the tribunal to adjudicate on the claim for unlawful wage deduction and accrued holiday pay.
