Natasha Joffe, an employment judge, ruled that Clinica Private Healthcare, a London-based provider, may have to pay Kirankumar Rathod unpaid wages after it dismissed him in 2023. The ruling could leave him eligible for a payout of more than £13,000.
Rathod was dismissed after raising concerns about the lack of work being offered to him and colleagues who had migrated to the UK on the promise of full-time employment.
Campaigners hope the interim decision will prompt others to come forward, after the Guardian revealed widespread allegations of worker exploitation in the sector last month.
A final ruling on the case is expected this year.
Sarmila Bose, the head of employment at the Work Rights Centre, which represented Rathod, said: "This is a highly significant judgment.
It is the first time a care worker has won this type of relief in principle."
