The Labour Court upheld a €700 Rights Commissioner recommendation for an unnamed worker employed by Caroline Fallon at the Early & Late Shop in Clara, finding that the end of her employment amounted to wrongful dismissal. The Court signed its decision on 11 September 2002. The worker said she was dismissed after a dispute over being asked to work on a Monday night. The employer said she had ended her contract without notice. The Court upheld the recommendation for €700 compensation, and the employer’s appeal failed.
