The Labour Court rejected DSG Retail Ireland Limited’s appeal and upheld a €5,000 compensation recommendation to a worker. Its decision was dated 21 December 2009. The worker said he did not receive the expected pay increase after being promoted to Specialist. DSG said he had not completed the required paperwork and that it paid the four-week pay difference. The Court was not satisfied that DSG had submitted evidence to mitigate its actions. It directed the company to pay the compensation within six weeks; none of it was for loss of earnings.
