The Court of Appeal reduced Mark Keane’s workplace injury award to €886,000 in a judgment reported on 23 June 2026.

The award arose from injuries Keane sustained while helping a colleague at a Johnson & Johnson plant in Plassey, County Limerick, in 2018. The court said the reduction reflected a previous €42,000 award for a 2014 road traffic incident and an adjustment to expected future earnings.
