A sales assistant was awarded €1,728 gross for minimum notice and €2,000 under the Payment of Wages Act after a convenience shop closed suddenly in March 2016. The WRC decision was dated 2 June 2017. The worker said she had worked at the shop for about 12 years and was owed six weeks’ notice pay, two weeks’ wages and two weeks’ annual leave. The respondent did not attend or provide evidence. The adjudicator accepted her evidence, supported by payslips and P.60s, that wages and annual leave were unpaid.
