The Labour Court awarded a worker at National Vehicle Deliveries €2,500 in compensation after finding that disciplinary procedures were inappropriate and the delay in removing a written warning caused her great distress. The decision was dated 15 May 2002, varying an earlier Rights Commissioner recommendation of £800 (€1,015.79). The worker had appealed the recommendation after alleging constructive dismissal. The Court rejected that claim, finding she had not proved it. It also recommended that the company provide a reference noting her excellent work record if she requested one.
