The WRC found a worker’s redundancy payment complaint was brought outside the time limit and had no jurisdiction to hear it. The merits were not decided. The decision was dated 6 October 2016. The worker said she understood her work had transferred to a new employer. The catering company said she had resigned to take work there and could have remained at other sites. The WRC found the alleged contravention occurred in January 2014. The worker first contacted the company in March 2015 and lodged her complaint in November 2015. The WRC declined to extend the time limit.
