Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The WRC awarded a carpenter compensation, unpaid wages and holiday pay after upholding several complaints against a construction company. The decision was dated 29 April 2019. The company did not attend the hearing. The officer relied on the carpenter’s detailed submissions, wage calculations and work records, which the company did not rebut. The awards were €250 for missing written terms, €2,500 for non-compliance with the construction employment order, €5,619 in unpaid wages, €1,390 for annual leave and €250 for the rest-period complaint. The public-holiday amount was included in the annual-leave compensation; the Sunday-premium complaint was withdrawn.
