WRC allows Patrick Davis’s redundancy appeal

The Workplace Relations Commission allowed Patrick Davis’s redundancy appeal against Frank O Shea, finding him entitled to a statutory redundancy payment. The decision was dated 22 January 2024. Davis said he had received no payment after his truck-driving job ended, despite asking for one. The respondent said he could not attend the hearing and was not in a position to pay. The payment is conditional on Davis having been in insurable employment under the Social Welfare Acts during the relevant period. The decision lists his weekly gross wage as €600; it does not specify the amount of the redundancy payment.
