The Labour Court upheld a €2,500 compensation recommendation to a worker dismissed by Superquinn after the company appealed. The decision was dated 9 April 2009. Superquinn said the worker breached clocking and cash register procedures during probation. Mandate argued that she had completed probation and that serious misconduct had not been established. The Court found that policy breaches occurred, but that the company’s procedures and its failure to grant an appeal immediately fell short of best practice. It also found the sanction disproportionate and dismissed Superquinn’s appeal.
