This report is a localnews.ie summary based on public court reporting and records; sources are listed below.

Glen Weir’s religious harassment claim against Anord Mardix was rejected by the Workplace Relations Commission; the outcome was reported on 8 April 2022.

The complaint concerned music played at the company’s Dundalk production assembly area on 1 July 2020. An employee admitted playing it and said it came from a random playlist without malicious intent; the company introduced measures to prevent a recurrence.

The adjudicator found that the employer had taken reasonably practicable steps to prevent harassment and reverse its effects. The company investigation found no evidence supporting Weir’s allegation that a colleague shouted “up the RA”.
