Complaint seeking adjudication by the Workplace Relations Commission under section 6 of the Payment of Wages Act, 1991	CA-00053960-001	01/12/2022

Date of Adjudication Hearing: 14/06/2023

Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer: Hugh Lonsdale

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.

Background:

A hearing of this complaint was scheduled for 14 June 2023 and the complainant was informed of this by letter sent via email on 5 May 2023. The respondent was also informed by letter dated 5 May 2023. Neither the complainant nor the respondent attended the hearing. No communication was received from the complainant for his non-attendance.

Summary of Complainant’s Case:

Did not attend

Summary of Respondent’s Case:

Did not attend

Findings and Conclusions:

The complaint was referred for investigation and a hearing for that purpose took place on 14 June 2023. The complainant did not attend but I am satisfied he was informed of the hearing.

As he did not attend the complainant was unable to give direct evidence to pursue his complaint. In the absence of direct evidence I conclude the complaint is not well founded.

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 given above I find the complaint is not well founded.
