The Workplace Relations Commission recommended €840 compensation for a truck driver it found had been dismissed without an investigation or fair procedures. The decision was dated 18 January 2023 and dealt with two duplicate industrial relations complaints against a transport company. The worker said the company dismissed him after he sought payment for diesel used on farm trips. The company said he had quit. The adjudicator concluded that a text about sending a P45 supported the worker’s account, and said concerns about his driving should have been handled under the company’s grievance and disciplinary procedures.
