William Ye was awarded €1,500 for unfair dismissal by a Workplace Relations Commission adjudicator in a decision reported on 15 November 2023. The case concerned his dismissal from a south Dublin Chinese takeaway delivery job.

The compensation was limited to four weeks’ pay because Ye had said he had not looked for work since his dismissal. It was calculated using the National Minimum Wage of €11.30 an hour, as his €5-an-hour rate was found unlawful.
