Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer:
Procedure:
This complaint was submitted to the WRC on March 23rd 2019 and, in accordance with Section 8 of the Unfair Dismissals Act 1977 – 2015, it was assigned to me by the Director General. A hearing was arranged for November 11th 2019, for the parties to present evidence in respect of the complaint; however neither the complainant or the respondent attended. I am satisfied that both parties were informed in writing of the date, time and place at which the hearing to investigate the complaint would be held.
Decision:
Section 8 of the Unfair Dismissals Acts, 1977 – 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the unfair dismissal claim consisting of a grant of redress in accordance with section 7 of the 1977 Act.
In the circumstances where the parties did not attend the hearing and, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary having been adduced before me, I must conclude that this complaint under the Unfair Dismissals Act 1977 – 2015 is not well-founded and I decide accordingly. |
