In 2004, the Labour Court recommended that Ladbroke (Ireland) Ltd pay a worker €1,000, varying a Rights Commissioner's recommendation on the company's appeal. The worker stepped down from a deputy manager role after concerns about her pay and its effect on her allowance. The company said extra payments for managing a shop were unauthorised and made in error. The Court accepted that the company could stop the practice, but noted the worker's financial loss after she gave up her allowance book. It also noted she had not tried to mitigate that loss by seeking reinstatement of the allowance. The decision was signed on 26 February 2004.
