Bartlomiej Wilczynski was awarded €4,444 by the Workplace Relations Commission after it upheld his unfair dismissal and minimum-notice complaints. The proceedings were reported on 27 July 2022.

The award comprised €3,636 for unfair dismissal and €808 in notice pay. Adjudicator Ms Doyle found he had been dismissed without fair procedures, although she accepted managers had anticipated a real and present danger to production and noted that no actual harm occurred.

Wilczynski denied directing colleagues not to work overtime and said personal problems prevented him volunteering; he later said he usually worked a different machine.
