The Labour Court increased compensation to €10,000 for a worker at Henkel Loctite (Ireland) Limited after finding the handling of her bullying and harassment complaint unsatisfactory and unfair. Its decision was dated 13 November 2006, varying a Rights Commissioner’s €3,000 recommendation. The Court found the general line of questioning in the investigation inappropriate. It also found that denying the worker sick pay without medical or other evidence was unwarranted and unfair, and that directing her to remain alone in an empty office for a full day after her return fell short of what could be expected of a reasonable employer.
