The Workplace Relations Commission awarded nurse Gijo George Peedikamal €1,800 after finding VHSI PCC Limited trading as Recovery At Home Ireland had not given him core employment terms within five working days. The decision was dated 12 May 2023. The WRC also awarded Peedikamal €600 for unlawful wage deductions and €450 for an annual leave complaint. It found deductions described as “other” were made without consultation or explanation. Peedikamal said he did not know his expected hours or pay rate and believed a full day’s work would pay €400 rather than €300; the respondent denied breaching the relevant laws. The WRC found the excessive-hours complaint not well founded because its particulars were not set and no reference period was presented.
