The Complainant worked as a Drivers Helper for a Transport Company .He worked 20 hrs per week .On 12 October, 2015, he made a complaint to the WRC that he had not been paid 500 euro owed in wages to him on 18 September ,2015.

Decision:

Section 41(4) of the Workplace Relations Act 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the complaint in accordance with the relevant redress provisions under Schedule 6 of that Act.

I held a hearing in accordance with the requirements under S.41 of the Workplace Relations Act, 2015. I am satisfied that both parties were notified of the date and location of the hearing . I gave an adequate waiting period . Neither party attended the hearing , nor did they contact the WRC with any reason for non attendance . On foot of this, I have to strike out the case for want of prosecution .
