The Labour Court increased a Rights Commissioner’s recommended settlement from £500 to £750 after an unnamed worker appealed, saying the amount was inadequate. The decision, signed on 10 January 1990, concerned her alleged unfair dismissal from her receptionist and secretary role at Turvey Developments Limited, trading as Young & Son Auctioneers. The company said falling sales had left it with little work and led to the redundancy. At the appeal hearing, the worker also raised alleged pay irregularities and said the agreed annual salary had not been honoured.
