The WRC upheld a general operative’s redundancy claim against a meat processing factory. The decision was dated 5 May 2017. The worker said she had been employed continuously from 5 June 2006 to 24 October 2016 and received no redundancy payment after short-time working and layoff. The respondent did not attend or provide submissions, so the adjudicator relied on her uncontested account. The factory was required to pay her statutory redundancy entitlement, based on weekly wages of €440 and continuous service from 5 June 2006 to 24 October 2016.
