Dr Bruno Seigle-Murandi was awarded €8,000 for whistleblower penalisation by a Workplace Relations Commission adjudicator, in a decision reported on 16 November 2023.

The adjudicator found a protected disclosure to the medicines regulator had been a factor in a poor performance rating and the resulting bonus reduction. He rejected Seigle-Murandi’s unfair dismissal complaint, finding the dismissal fell within the band of reasonableness after he refused to delete emails sent to personal accounts or say who could access them.
