Dentist awarded compensation for unpaid wages, leave and public holidays

By Orla Quinn

Workplace Relations Commission ·

A dentist was awarded €3,250 for unpaid annual leave, €1,250 for public holiday entitlements and €1,716.89 in unpaid wages in a Workplace Relations Commission decision dated 25 November 2016. The respondent accepted that the sums were owed, and the adjudicator found all three complaints well founded. The adjudicator also found a complaint about receiving a signed statement of employment terms partly well founded and recommended €300 compensation. The respondent had left a signed copy in the dentist’s workplace but should have ensured she formally received it.
