By Aoife Loughran

Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission rejected four complaints by Karen McWilliams against the National Ambulance Service after she failed to attend a hearing. The decision was dated 28 January 2025. The complaints concerned temporary agency work, terms of employment, unfair dismissal and wages. The adjudicator refused McWilliams’s request to reconvene, finding she had not met the test of exceptional circumstances and substantial reasons. The outcomes followed her non-attendance and absence of evidence; they were not substantive findings on the underlying complaints.
