The WRC found John Joe Doyle was unfairly dismissed by Park Plant Hire Ltd T/A Killeen Civil Engineering Ltd after allegations he failed to ensure poles were installed correctly, creating a safety risk. It awarded him eight weeks’ gross pay for unfair dismissal and eight weeks’ gross pay in minimum notice. The WRC found he lacked an adequate chance to challenge a colleague’s evidence and the disciplinary charges were insufficiently specified. His unpaid lay-off wages complaint was not well founded, and he withdrew a second wages complaint.
