Redundancy claim against Comet Care Ltd. t/a MCMA not well founded

The Workplace Relations Commission found Loreta Zigmantiene’s redundancy claim against Comet Care Ltd. t/a MCMA not well founded in a decision dated 28 September 2023. Zigmantiene said she had worked in social care since April 2017 and was no longer being offered shifts from December 2022. She believed she was entitled to redundancy pay. The company said work remained available and it had offered her shifts, though she was not rostered for Tusla Special Emergency Arrangements while concerns were reviewed. The adjudication officer found that work remained available and no redundancy situation existed. Zigmantiene had no entitlement to particular shifts, but could choose from the hours offered generally.
