Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer: Kara Turner
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.
There was no attendance by either party at a hearing arranged for 17 December 2024.
Background:
The complainant referred a complaint under section 7 of the Terms of Employment (Information) Act 1994 to the Workplace Relations Commission on 29 September 2024. By correspondence dated 30 October 2024, the Commission notified the parties of the hearing arrangements for 17 December 2024.
There was no attendance by either party at the hearing. |
Findings and Conclusions:
The complainant was notified of the hearing arrangements in accordance with the contact information provided. The Commission notified the respondent of the same arrangements at its registered address. I am satisfied that the parties were properly notified of the hearing arrangements for this complaint. There was no contact by either party with the Commission in relation to the hearing arrangements and no explanation provided for non-attendance at the hearing. I note also that neither party was in contact with the Commission subsequent to the referral / notification of the complainant’s complaint. It was necessary for the complainant to attend the hearing in pursuit of their complaint. In the circumstances, I must conclude that 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 set out above, I find that this complaint is not well founded. |
