WRC finds Jenny Kelly’s fixed-term work complaint against An Garda Síochána not well founded

By Aoife Loughran

Workplace Relations Commission ·

The Workplace Relations Commission found Jenny Kelly’s complaint against An Garda Síochána not well founded in a decision dated 17 May 2024. Kelly, a cleaner, sought compensation over delays in giving her a contract of indefinite duration. She said she had worked continuously full time; the respondent said it had granted her a contract backdated to 1 April 2019 with improved terms. The adjudication officer found Kelly was not a fixed-term employee as defined by the Protection of Employees (Fixed-Term Work) Act 2003, so she lacked legal standing to bring the complaint.
