The WRC awarded a receptionist €1,100 for unfair dismissal and €580 for failure to give minimum notice, both subject to statutory deductions. The respondent argued she was self-employed, but the adjudication officer found she was an employee. The officer found the dismissal unfair after the respondent gave no required warnings or notice of a disciplinary process, and no opportunity to answer the allegations or appeal. The decision was dated 6 October 2017.
