The Workplace Relations Commission awarded Eamonn Kavanagh €7,000 after finding his dismissal by Compass Catering Services Ireland Ltd. unfair on procedural grounds. The decision was dated 19 November 2021. The WRC found the redundancy was genuine, but Compass failed to work with Kavanagh on suitable alternative positions and did not hold a promised second consultation meeting. It also found Kavanagh contributed significantly to his dismissal, which was reflected in the award. His holiday-pay complaint failed because the WRC found he had received his full holiday entitlement. The redundancy-calculation complaint also failed, as the WRC found the calculation correct. The long-service award issue was settled, and his public-holiday complaint was withdrawn.
