Procedure:
In accordance with Section 41 of the Workplace Relations Act, 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.
Summary of Complainant’s Case:
The complainant did not attend the hearing. |
Summary of Respondent’s Case:

Findings and Conclusions:
A complaint was received by the Director General of the Workplace Relations Commission from the complainant alleging breaches of the above statute and was referred to me for investigation. There was no appearance by or on behalf of the complainant at the hearing. I am satisfied that the complainant was sent notice in writing to the address provided on the complaint form of the date, time and place at which the hearing to investigate the complaint would be held. In these circumstances and in the absence of any evidence to the contrary having been adduced before me, I must conclude that the complaint is not well-founded and I decide accordingly. |
Decision:
Section 41 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.
For the reasons set out above Complaint CA-00045528-001 is not well-founded. |
