John Clark was awarded €60,000 for unfair dismissal by the Workplace Relations Commission, reported on 8 March 2024.

The adjudicator found Camphill Communities of Ireland dismissed him without fair procedures and where there was probably no redundancy situation.

Clark also received €1,000 for the charity’s failure to provide a written contract; his redundancy claim was rejected.

His claim concerned decades of unpaid volunteering at Camphill’s Ballytobin community in County Kilkenny.
