WRC rejects worker’s unfair dismissal complaint

The WRC found that a worker’s dismissal by a business consultancy service was not unfair, in a decision dated 8 April 2025. The worker said performance concerns followed a dispute over travel to the company’s Letterkenny office; the company said it dismissed him for poor performance after warnings and a performance improvement plan. The WRC found the company’s account more convincing. It also said it had no jurisdiction to consider a discrimination complaint raised retrospectively; the merits of that allegation were not decided.
