Workplace Relations Commission Adjudication Officer: Lefre de Burgh
Procedure:
In accordance with Section 41 of the Workplace Relations Act, 2015 and Section 8 of the Unfair Dismissals Acts, 1977 – 2015 and Section 79 of the Employment Equality Acts, 1998 - 2015, and Section 25 of the Equal Status Act, 2000, 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:
The Complainant worked for the Respondent company, which provides after school childcare services, in a part-time role.
Following the conclusion of her employment, she filed a large number of complaints with the WRC, some of which appear to be parallel complaints and/or do not apply to employment. Others appear to be duplicate in nature.
The Respondent denies the Complainant’s complaints. |
Summary of Complainant’s Case:
The Complainant did not attend the hearing and was not represented. |
Summary of Respondent’s Case:
The Respondent denies the Complainant’s claims.
The Respondent and its representative attended the hearing.
As the Complainant did not attend the hearing, it was submitted the matters should be dismissed for want of prosecution. |
Findings and Conclusions:
The complaints were received by the Director General of the Workplace Relations commission on 22nd April 2025, whereby the Complainant alleged that her former employer contravened the provisions of a large number of pieces of legislation in relation to her.
The complaints were assigned the following complaint application numbers: CA-00071016-001, CA-00071016-002, CA-00071016-003, CA-00071016-004, CA-00071016-005. CA-00071016-006, CA-00071016-007, CA-00071016-008, CA-00071016-009, CA-00071016-013, CA-00071016-014, CA-00071016-015, CA-00071016-016, CA-00071016-017, CA-00071016-018, CA-00071016-019, CA-00071016-020, CA-00071016-021 and CA-00071016-022
The said complaints were referred to me for investigation.
A hearing for that purpose was arranged for 21st May 2026.
There was no appearance by or on behalf of the Complainant at the hearing.
The Adjudication Officer allowed a grace period of 15 minutes before commencing the hearing. |
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.
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.
Section 79 of the Employment Equality Acts, 1998 – 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the complaint in accordance with the relevant redress provisions under section 82 of the Act.
Section 25 of the Equal Status Acts, 2000 – 2015 requires that I make a decision in relation to the complaint in accordance with the relevant redress provisions under section 27 of that Act.
In all of the circumstances of the matter, I must conclude that the within complaints (CA-00071016-001, CA-00071016-002, CA-00071016-003, CA-00071016-004, CA-00071016-005. CA-00071016-006, CA-00071016-007, CA-00071016-008, CA-00071016-009, CA-00071016-013, CA-00071016-014, CA-00071016-015, CA-00071016-016, CA-00071016-017, CA-00071016-018, CA-00071016-019, CA-00071016-020, CA-00071016-021 and CA-00071016-022) are not well-founded and I decide accordingly. |
