The Workplace Relations Commission awarded Sabrina Kennedy €880 after finding that Best Bites Catering Limited, t/a O’Briens Sandwich Café, failed to provide her with written terms of employment. The decision was dated 25 November 2022. Kennedy worked as a catering assistant from 11 December 2021 until her dismissal on 14 March 2022. She said she received no contract or written terms, despite asking about them. The company accepted that it had not provided them, saying it usually waited until the three-month probation period ended. The WRC found the breach serious because no written statement had been provided. It awarded four weeks’ remuneration, calculated at €220 a week.
