The Workplace Relations Commission dismissed Ciara Linehan’s complaint that the Board Of Management (Bom) Of Gaelscoil An Raithin penalised her for asserting an entitlement to a contract of indefinite duration. The decision was dated 1 July 2025, and no award was made. Linehan said she was treated unfairly during interviews and lost her job because of her assertion. The adjudication officer found one interview question was not put to other candidates, but it did not affect Linehan’s score or ranking; other candidates scored higher for reasons unrelated to her assertion.
