Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer: Brian Dolan
Procedure:
In accordance with Section 41 of the Workplace Relations Act, 2015 following the referral of the complaints to me by the Director General, I inquired into the complaints and gave the parties an opportunity to be heard by me and to present to me any evidence relevant to the complaints
Background:
On 3rd April 2020, the Complainant referred the present set out complaint in respect of two allegations of penalisation as a consequence of his raising health and safety concerns.
These issues are related to those discussed under file reference ADJ-18796, and this decision should be read in conjunction with the same. Following the referral of the complaints, the Complainant refereed a further set of complaints under file reference ADJ-00029045. This complaint related to an allegation that the Complainant was dismissed as a consequence of matters alleged under this file reference. In this regard, the Complainant accepted that this file reference, and the decision issued thereunder, superseded the present set of complaints. Following from the same, these matters were not pursued as individual complaints. |
Decision:
Section 41 of the Workplace Relations Act 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the complaints in accordance with the relevant redress provisions under Schedule 6 of that Act.
CA-00035566-001 I find that this complaint is not well-founded. CA-00035566-002 I find that this complaint is not well-founded. |
