The Workplace Relations Commission found Lorraine Chu’s age and family status discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and victimisation complaint against Smorgs (ROI) Management Limited T/A Travelodge Ireland not well founded. The decision was dated 4 January 2024.
Chu worked for the company from 2005 until September 2022. She alleged discrimination in promotion and training, harassment and victimisation. The adjudication officer found she had not provided compelling evidence to support the claims and had not identified a comparator. The Equal Status Act complaint was withdrawn at the hearing.
