Complaint seeking adjudication by the Workplace Relations Commission under section 77 of the Employment Equality Act, 1998 | CA-00017534-001 | 20/02/2018 |
Date of Adjudication Hearing: 05/02/2019
Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer: Jim O'Connell
Procedure:
In accordance Section 79 of the Employment Equality Acts, 1998 - 2015, following the referral of the complaint to me by the Director General, I inquired into the complaint and gave the parties an opportunity to be heard by me and to present to me any evidence relevant to the complaint
Findings
The claimant did not attend
As part of my investigation under Section 79 of the Acts, I am obliged to hold a hearing. I am satisfied that the complainant was notified of the arrangements for the hearing. I find that the complainant’s failure to attend such a hearing was unreasonable in the circumstances and that any obligation under Section 79 has ceased.
Decision
Section 79 of the Employment Equality Acts, 1998 – 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the complaint in accordance with the relevant redress provisions under section 82 of the Act.
As no evidence was given at the hearing in support of the allegations of discrimination, I conclude the investigation and find against the complainant.
