The Workplace Relations Commission found James Poland’s pay complaint was not well founded after he did not attend the hearing to give evidence; the merits were not decided. The decision was dated 6 March 2023. Poland had alleged that Xsdirect Insurance Brokers Ltd reduced his pay in 2020 and 2021 without his consent. He told the WRC he was unwell and would not attend, but did not provide the medical certificate requested to support relisting the case.
