Nine former The Food Point workers secured €21,728 in Workplace Relations Commission awards for unpaid wages and employment-rights breaches, reported on 25 February 2025.

The orders covered unpaid wages and annual leave, plus Sunday-work premiums and compensation for eight workers. The WRC rejected notice-pay claims because none had worked the 13 weeks required, and declined jurisdiction over minimum-wage complaints because the workers had not first sought statements of working hours.
