WRC recommends €2,500 for unfairly dismissed technician

Workplace Relations Commission ·

The WRC recommended that an employer pay €2,500 compensation to a technician it found was unfairly dismissed. The recommendation was dated 8 November 2023. The worker said he was told not to return after eight weeks because work was slowing, then saw the same job advertised a few days later. The employer did not engage with the WRC or attend the hearing. The WRC noted there were no performance concerns and no procedure was followed before finding the dismissal unfair.
