The Workplace Relations Commission found Kevin Kiely’s 22 complaints against his former employer, Eliste Securtiy Northern Ireland Elite Security, not well-founded after he did not attend the hearing. The decision was dated 22 November 2022. Kiely had been employed as a security manager from September 2018 until March 2021. The respondent attended the hearing with legal representation, but no evidence was given on Kiely’s behalf. The WRC said he provided no reasonable explanation for his absence. The complaints, brought under several employment laws, failed; the merits were not decided.
