Nicola McDonnell was awarded €22,540 for constructive dismissal by the Workplace Relations Commission, reported on 15 December 2022.

The adjudicator found that a series of workplace incidents made her position untenable and that resigning was reasonable. The report says the incidents included removal of her email access, restrictions on entering the museum and an official warning issued without due process.

McDonnell had worked as general manager for three years. She secured alternative employment in late December 2021, according to the report.
