The Labour Court upheld a €2,000 wrongful dismissal recommendation for a worker and disallowed Bos Leisure Limited’s appeal. The decision was signed on 17 October 2006. The worker, represented by Services Industrial Professional Technical Union, was dismissed after a dispute over lateness and Saturday shifts. BOS Leisure said she was repeatedly late and refused some shifts; she disputed the lateness count and said she received no warning before dismissal. The Court said the Rights Commissioner’s conclusions were correct and the recommendation reasonable. It affirmed the recommendation, leaving the €2,000 compensation in place.
