The Workplace Relations Commission found Noel Hanley’s complaint against Woodie’s DIY Limited not well founded. He said he was asked to leave its Kilkenny store after declining to wear a face mask. The WRC decision, dated 2 November 2023, concerned alleged disability discrimination, harassment and a failure to provide reasonable accommodation. Woodie’s said masks were required under Covid-19 rules and that it offered Hanley a disposable mask. The adjudication officer found no evidence that the mask policy was applied differently to Hanley and said Woodie’s had not been made aware of a disability on the day. The complaint was dismissed.
