WRC rejects security officer’s constructive dismissal complaint

The Workplace Relations Commission found that Thomas Kasak’s constructive dismissal complaint against Darlex Risk Managment was not well founded. The decision, dated 17 July 2024, followed his complaint that he was unfairly dismissed after being removed from a client site. Kasak worked as a security officer. The company said its third-party client required his removal and that it tried to find him alternative work. The adjudication officer found that the client controlled the site removal and that the company had advocated for Kasak and sought another role for him. The officer also noted that Kasak had not used the company’s grievance procedure to raise his concerns before ending his employment.
