Ex-employee of storied Dublin GAA club says he wasn't paid redundancy
Summary
A former part‑time security guard and barman at Dublin GAA club Parnells, Graham Coventry, claims the club failed to pay him his redundancy lump sum, two weeks' wages and holiday entitlements after he was laid off during the Covid‑19 pandemic. Coventry says he was told in August 2020 that the clubhouse would reopen soon, but received no response to emails and no reopening date until a July 2021 meeting. He and colleagues were advised to file statutory claim forms, but the club did not pay the required amounts after they filed in April 2022. Coventry's hourly pay was €15 for 27‑40 hours weekly, with the club owing him about €550 a week.
