Summary

Francis Declan Radmall, a former employee of Randridge International Ltd, has lodged a claim with the Workplace Relations Commission alleging unpaid wages and redundancy entitlements amounting to €25,995.60. He says the company avoided payments by citing financial hardship following a bankruptcy and issued a letter dated 10 July, though his notice of redundancy was on 5 July. Radmall claims a pay rise from €52,000 to €56,000 was not paid from June 2023 to the end of his employment, and that he was short €2,833 in June and €5,495.65 in July, with no payslips received. The CEO, Darren Daly, contends Radmall did not sign the contract and that 40 % of his June salary was paid. The adjudicating officer, Breiffni O'Neill, adjourned the case, requiring a detailed breakdown of Radmall's pay and the company to provide June and July payslips.
